Exodus 2:23

In process of time; Heb. in those many days, viz. in which he lived or abode there, i.e. after them. In is put for after here, as it is Numbers 28:26 Isaiah 20:1 Mark 13:24, compared with Matthew 24:29 Luke 9:36. After forty years, as appears by comparing Exodus 7:7, with Acts 7:30. The king of Egypt died; and after him one or two more of his sons or successors, and the rest who sought for Moses's life, Exodus 4:19. The children of Israel sighed, because though their great oppressor was dead, yet they found no relief, as they hoped to do.
