Exo 2:10 | MHM | STEP | v. 10 : When Moses grew older, his mother brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, who adopted him as her son. She named him Moses, saying, “Because I drew him out of the water” (v. 10 ). Moses was raised in the Egyptian court, which gave him the education and experience he would need to lead Israel later (Acts 7:22 ). God sometimes lifts people from humble beginnings to places of great honor (Ps. 113:7,8 ). Moses’ Egyptian name and royal upbringing also pointed to a future when people from all nations would be blessed by God’s work (Isa. 19:25; Isa. 49:23 ).
