L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 2:1-25

THE BIRTH AND PROTECTION OF MOSES (vs.1-10) God's hand of overruling power and grace is seen beautifully in this chapter. There is nothing spectacular, but an incident takes place that would be normally unnoticed. A man of the tribe of Levi, Amram by name, married a woman (Jochebed) of the same tribe, who gave birth to a son. However, not being afraid of the king's commandment, and being specially encouraged by the beauty of the child, she hid him for three months. Hebrews 11:23 tells us... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Exodus 2:1-22

JOSEPH ’S DEATH , MOSES ’ CALL In Exodus we have the deliverance of Israel out of Egypt and the establishment of their relationship with Jehovah their Deliverer. It opens by rehearsing the names of Jacob’s sons and the passing away of Joseph and his generation (Exodus 1:1-6 ) matters considered in Genesis. Then follows a statement of the numerical development of Israel. Count the adverbs, adjectives and nouns describing it, and see how God has fulfilled already one part of His prediction to... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Exodus 2:10-25

Moses In Midian Exo 2:10 There seems to be a considerable gap between the ninth verse and the tenth. We parted with Moses when he was three months old, and we know nothing more of him until he became the son of Pharaoh's daughter. We wish to know something of his home training. We would fain pry into the mother's methods of dealing with such a child. What truths did she inculcate upon him? How did she explain the condition of the children of Israel to her son? Did she seek to prejudice his... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 2:11-15

11-15 Moses boldly owned the cause of God's people. It is plain from Exodus 2:11. that this was done in faith, with the full purpose of leaving the honours, wealth, and pleasures of his rank among the Egyptians. By the grace of God he was a partaker of faith in Christ, which overcomes the world. He was willing, not only to risk all, but to suffer for his sake; being assured that Israel were the people of God. By special warrant from Heaven, which makes no rule for other cases, Moses slew an... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Exodus 2:11-15

Moses Attempts to Deliver His People v. 11. And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens; and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren. Moses grew to manhood fully conscious of his derivation, and therefore an Israelite at heart, although a prince of the nation to all appearances. The Israelites were his brethren, as the text emphasizes by the repetition of the word, and the enforced labor under... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Exodus 2:11-25

Moses Slays an Egyptian and Flees to Midian Exodus 2:11-25 Amid all the allurements of Pharaoh’s court, the heart of Moses beat true to his own people. Neither the treasures of Egypt, nor the pleasures of sin; the attraction of human love, nor the glamour of the world’s smile, could turn him aside from his own folk. A light shone for him over the humble huts of Goshen, before which that of Pharaoh’s palaces paled. Some glimmering knowledge of the promised Christ appears to have been present... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Exodus 2:1-25

Here begins the story of Moses. When Pharaoh was beginning to take active steps to oppress the people, God brought to birth the man who was to break Egypt's power. A mother's love is seen scheming for the life of her child. The New Testament tells us that what she did, she did by faith. Was anything more unimportant, judged by all human standards, than the startled cry of a baby? Yet that cry opened the gate of a woman's heart and admitted to the center of Egyptian life the coming deliverer. ... read more
