And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.

And when he was cast out, [ Ektethenta (G1620)] - or 'exposed;' for his mother "could not longer hide him" (Exodus 2:3). [ ektethentos (G1620), adopted by Lachmann, though supported by 'Aleph (') A B C D, etc., is probably a grammatical correction, Tischendorf abides by the Received Text, which is approved by Meyer, DeWette, and Alford.]

Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son - a most wonderful providence, which secured not only his preservation from certain death at that time, but the highest training thereafter which the most advanced kingdom then existing could supply. Nor, as we shall immediately see, was he a dull learner.
