Commentary on Acts 7:24
Moses' defense of his Hebrew brother demonstrates early signs of his calling as deliverer, yet his fleshly zeal preceded God's timing. The Reformed understanding emphasizes that even our righteous acts apart from divine commission can miss God's purposes. Moses would spend forty years in the wilderness before God's proper call came (Acts 7:30), illustrating that human initiative, even with good intentions, must yield to divine sovereignty and timing.
