Commentary on Acts 7:14
Joseph's summons brought seventy-five souls to Egypt (Genesis 46:27, Septuagint count including Joseph's grandchildren born in Egypt). This small family would multiply into a great nation, demonstrating God's covenant faithfulness to make Abraham's descendants numerous. The specific number emphasizes God's particular knowledge and care for each covenant member. The divine precision in fulfilling promises encourages our trust in God's detailed providence.
