{Gom‚,} is the papyrus, so famous in all antiquity. It grows
on the banks of the Nile, and in marshy grounds; the stalk
rises to the height of six or seven cubits above the water,
is triangular, and terminates in a crown of small fimourns,
resembling hair. This reed was of the greatest use to the
Egyptians; the pith serving them for food, and the woody part
to build vessels with; which vessels frequently appear on
various monuments of Egyptian antiquity. That boats were
made of this reed is also attested by Pliny and others.
- with slime.
* Ge 6:14; 11:3; 14:10
VERSE 4
* Ex 15:20 Nu 12:1-15; 20:1; 26:59 Mic 6:4
VERSE 5
- daughter.
* Ac 7:21
- herself.
As the word herself is not in the original, Dr. A. Clarke is
of opinion that it was for the purpose of washing, not her
person, but her clothes, that Pharaoh's daughter came to the
river; which was an employment not beneath even king's
daughters in those primitive times.

VERSE 12
- he looked.
* Ac 7:24-26
- slew.
If the Egyptian killed the Hebrew, Moses only acted agreeably
to the divine law (Ge 9:6) in thus slaying the Egyptian; nor
did he violate the law of Egypt; for, according to Diodorus
Siculus (1. 1. 17), "he who saw a man killed, or violently
assaulted on the highway, and did not rescue him, if he
could, was punished with death." Moses, therefore, in this
transaction, acted as a brave and good man; especially as at
this time there was little probability of obtaining justice
on an Egyptian murderer.
