We continue our verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter journey through the Book of Acts with an in-depth look at Acts 7:30–41.

Stephen stands before the Sanhedrin, defending himself against false accusations of blasphemy against God, Moses, the temple, and the Law. In his response, Stephen boldly argues that God has never been confined to a temple or tradition. He reminds them that God appeared to Moses not in Jerusalem, but in the wilderness—through a burning bush on what God Himself declared to be holy ground.

Stephen emphasizes that God revealed Himself to Moses as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—long before there was a temple, the Law, or even a nation called Israel. His message is clear: God’s presence isn’t limited by buildings or rituals.

Stephen also highlights Israel’s long history of rejecting God’s chosen leaders, including Moses—and now Jesus. He quotes Moses’ prophecy: “God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from among your own people,” pointing to Jesus as the fulfillment of that promise.
