Acts 7:36

Context
7:36 This man led them out, performing wonders and miraculous signs 1  in the land of Egypt, 2  at 3  the Red Sea, and in the wilderness 4  for forty years.

1 tn Here the context indicates the miraculous nature of the signs mentioned.

sn Performing wonders and miraculous signs. Again Moses acted like Jesus. The phrase appears 9 times in Acts (2:19, 22, 43; 4:30; 5:12; 6:8; 7:36; 14:3; 15:12).

2 tn Or simply “in Egypt.” The phrase “the land of” could be omitted as unnecessary or redundant.

3 tn Grk “and at,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

4 tn Or “desert.”
