Verse 25. He turned their heart, and so forth Not that God (who is never the author of sin) moved the Egyptians to hate and persecute his people; but that the Egyptians took occasion of hating and envying them, from the sight of the benefits which God bestowed upon them. Challoner. Saint Augustine—He permitted the malice of the Egyptians, (Theod.) and employed them to chastise his people, who had adored idols. Euseb. Acts 7:43. Felix, Prot. and so forth translate the Hebrew “their heart was turned.” Bert.—The perversity of the Egyptians came from themselves, though it was turned to a good account. Worthington.
