Acts 7:7 - Exposition

Which for whom , A.V. And serve me in this place . These words are not in Genesis 15:1-21 ., from which the preceding words are quoted. Instead of καὶ λατρεύσουσι μοί ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ , the LXX , following the Hebrew, have μετὰ ἀποσκεύης πολλῆς , "with great substance." The words "serve me in this place," seem certainly to have been suggested by Exodus 3:12 , "Ye shall serve God upon this mountain;" but they give a perfectly correct account of what happened in this ease.
