Acts 7:45

43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And ^aI will carry you away beyond Babylon.’

God’s True Tabernacle

44 “Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as He appointed, instructing Moses ^ato make it according to the pattern that he had seen,

45 ^awhich our fathers, having received it in turn, also brought with Joshua into the land possessed by the Gentiles, ^bwhom God drove out before the face of our fathers until the ^cdays of David,

46 ^awho found favor before God and ^basked to find a dwelling for the God of Jacob.

47 ^aBut Solomon built Him a house.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Acts 7:44

Acts 7:46 >>

Which our fathers having received - From their ancestors; brought into the possession of the Gentiles - Into the land which the Gentiles possessed before. So that God's favour is not a necessary consequence of inhabiting this land. All along St. Stephen intimates two things: 1. That God always loved good men in every land: 2. That he never loved bad men even in this. Joshua 3:14.
