Acts Chapter 7
Overview
Act 7:1, Stephen, permitted to answer to the accusation of blasphemy, Act 7:2, shows that Abraham worshipped God rightly, and how God chose the fathers, Act 7:20. before Moses was born, and before the tabernacle and temple were built; Act 7:37, that Moses himself witnessed of Christ; Act 7:44, and that all outward ceremonies were ordained, according to the heavenly pattern, to last but for a time; Act 7:51, reprehending their rebellion, and murdering of Christ, the Just One, whom the prophets foretold should come into the world; Act 7:54, Whereupon they stone him to death, who commends his soul to Jesus, and humbly prays for them.

were: Of the two burying-places of the patriarchs, one was at Hebron, the cave and field which Abraham purchased of Ephron the Hittite (Gen 23:16, etc.); the other in Sychem, which Jacob (not Abraham) bought of the sons of Emmor (Gen 33:19). To remove this glaring discrepancy, Markland interprets παρα [Strong's G3844], from, as it frequently signifies with a genitive, and renders, "And were carried over to Sychem; and afterwards from among the descendants of Emmor, the father, or son, of Sychem, they were laid in the sepulchre which Abraham bought for a sum of money." This agrees with the account which Josephus gives of the patriarchs; that they were carried out of Egypt, first to Sychem, and then to Hebron, where they were buried. Exo 13:19; Jos 24:32
