Context — Moses Defends an Israelitegenerated
Acts 7:24 describes how Moses, upon seeing an Israelite being mistreated, took action to defend him. This moment highlights Moses' growing awareness of his identity and his commitment to his people. It sets the stage for his future role as a leader and deliverer of the Israelites from Egyptian bondage, as further explored in the narrative of Exodus.

The Key Word — ἀδικέω, adikeōgenerated
The word ἀδικούμενον is a present passive participle of ἀδικέω, meaning 'to harm' or 'to do wrong.' It describes someone who is currently being wronged or oppressed. The parsing indicates that it is in the accusative singular masculine form, referring specifically to the Israelite being mistreated.
In this context, it emphasizes the ongoing suffering of the individual Moses seeks to defend. The passive voice indicates that the subject is receiving the action of being wronged, highlighting the injustice faced by the oppressed.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse in the Berean Standard Bible uses the phrase being mistreated, which aligns with the KJV's suffer wrong and ASV's suffer wrong. Both terms convey the idea of injustice faced by the Israelite.
Where they differ is in how they render the action of Moses. The BSB states went to his defense, while the KJV and ASV use defended him. This reflects a slight variation in emphasis on the nature of Moses' intervention.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is governed by the verb ἰδών, having seen, which introduces the action Moses takes. The structure includes several phrases: a participial phrase describing what Moses saw, an infinitive phrase explaining what he did, and a noun phrase indicating the object of his action.
The sentence structure is complex, with the main verb leading into a series of actions that Moses takes in response to witnessing the mistreatment. This layering of actions emphasizes the urgency and decisiveness of Moses' intervention.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἀδικούμενον corresponds to the Hebrew word עָשַׁק, meaning 'to oppress' or 'to wrong.' This connection emphasizes the continuity of themes regarding justice and oppression found in both the Septuagint and the Hebrew Scriptures.
The term ἰδών also appears in the Septuagint, aligning with the Hebrew רָאָה, which means 'to see.' This reinforces the significance of perception and awareness in the context of social justice.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Acts 7:24 tells us that Moses saw an Israelite being mistreated by an Egyptian. He stepped in to protect the Israelite and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian who was oppressing him. This action marks an important moment in Moses' life, showing his commitment to his people.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Et cum vidisset quemdam injuriam patientem, vindicavit illum, et fecit ultionem ei qui injuriam sustinebat, percusso Ægyptio.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܘܚܙܐ ܠܚܕ ܡܢ ܒܢܝ ܫܪܒܬܗ ܕܡܬܕܒܪ ܒܩܛܝܪܐ ܘܬܒܥܗ ܘܥܒܕ ܠܗ ܕܝܢܐ ܘܩܛܠܗ ܠܡܨܪܝܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܣܟܠ ܗܘܐ ܒܗ

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word οἶδα (i.e., *oida*) is derived from the root of εἶδον (i.e., *eidon*), meaning 'to see' or 'to perceive.' It primarily conveys the idea of knowing or having knowledge, often used in contexts where one has seen or understood something. The New Testament employs it in various constructions, indicating knowledge of things, people, or concepts.

τὶς is an enclitic indefinite pronoun meaning 'someone' or 'something.' It can refer to a certain person or object and appears in both singular and plural forms, such as τινός and τινες. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, including Luke 9:49 and Acts 5:25. It is related to the interrogative pronoun τίς, indicating its flexible use in questions and statements.

ἀμύνομαι is a middle voice verb meaning to defend oneself or to ward off danger. It can also imply assisting or avenging someone. The New Testament uses it in Acts 7:24, where it describes defending against an unjust act. The lexicons note that it is rare in both the Septuagint and the New Testament, with some disagreement on its usage in different contexts.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

ποιέω is a Greek verb meaning 'to make' or 'to do,' with a wide range of applications including creating, producing, or performing actions. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts relating to God's creative acts or human actions, such as making sacrifices or preparing feasts. Notably, it can also imply causing something to happen or fulfilling a purpose. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings.

The Greek word ἐκδίκησις (ekdikēsis) is derived from ἐκδικέω and encompasses concepts of vengeance, retribution, and vindication. It appears in several New Testament passages, including Luke 21:22 and Romans 12:19, often relating to the act of avenging or punishing wrongdoers. Some lexicons note its use in legal contexts, while others emphasize its broader implications of justice.

So also in Ac 28:4; though many suppose that the islanders meant the goddess of justice, Dike, whom the Greeks and Romans regarded as a daughter of Jupiter, and feared as an independent, just, and unappeasable deity.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word καταπονέω (*kataponeō*) is built from the prefix κατα- and a root meaning to labor or toil. It covers a range of meanings including to oppress, exhaust, or ill-treat.

πατάσσω (patassō) means to strike or beat, and is used both literally and metaphorically. It can refer to physical blows, as seen in verses like Matthew 26:51 and Luke 22:50, or to afflictions like diseases in Acts 12:23 and Revelation 19:15. The word has roots in both classical and biblical Greek, with various forms indicating different tenses and uses.
πατάσσω,
[in LXX chiefly and very freq. for נכה hi., also for נגף, etc.;]
in Hom., intrans., to beat (of the heart).
πατάσσω: fut. πατάξω; 1 aor. ἐπάταξα; Sept. times without number for 737 (Hiphil of 433, unused in Kal), also for ἢ), ete.; (in Hom. intrans. to beat, of the heart; fr. Arstph., Soph., Plat., al. on used transitively) ; ale to strike gently: τί (as a part or a member of the body), Acts xii. 7. 2. to strike, smite: absol., ἐν μαχαίρᾳ, with the sword, Lk. xxii. 49; τινά, Mt. xxvi. 51; Lk. xxii. 50. by a use solely biblical, to afflict; to visit with evils, ete.: as with a deadly disease, τινά, Acts xii. 28 ; τινὰ ἐν w. dat. of the thing, Rev. xi. 6 GL Τ ΤΥ ΝΗ; xix. 15, (Gen. viii. 21; Num. xiv. 12; Ex. xii. 23, ete.). 3. by a use solely biblical, to smite down, cut down, to kill, slay: τινά, Mt. xxvi. 31 and Mk. xiv. 27, (after Zech. xiii. 7); Acts vii. 24.

The document is late, but the curious phrase may perhaps be taken as illustrating the good sense which is sometimes given to the verb in Gal 35. For the meaning ‘‘experience ill treatment,” ‘suffer’ bodily or otherwise, we may cite P Amh II. 784 (a.p. 184) βίαν πάσχων ἑκάστοτε ὑπὸ “Exioews, “1 am constantly suffering violence from Hekusis,’” PSI [V. 2997 (iii/A.D.) τραχώματα (‘‘roughnesses”’) ἔσχον καὶ δεινὰ πέπονθα (for form, see Proleg. p. 154), P Oxy VIII. 11201 (early 111[4.}..} περὶ ἧς (sc. ὕβρεως) πέπονθεν ἐπὶ τόπων ὁ ἀνὴρ τῆς θυγατρός μου Πολυδεύκης, ‘‘concerning the outrage suffered at his abode by my son-in-law…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.
