These one hundred and twenty years were divided into three remarkable periods. Forty years he lived in Egypt, in the court of Pharaoh, acquiring all the learning and wisdom of the Egyptians (Act 7:20, Act 7:23); forty years he sojourned in Midian, in a state of preparation for his great and important mission (Act 7:29, Act 7:30); and forty years he guided, led, and governed the Israelites under the express direction and authority of God. in all 120 years.

Though much stress cannot be safely laid upon this expression to prove the immortality of the soul, or that the people, in the time of Moses, had a distinct notion of its separate existence; yet is was understood in this sense by Jonathan, who paraphrases the words thus: \"Thou shalt lie down in the dust with thy fathers; and thy soul (nishmatoch) shall be laid up in the treasury of the life to come, with thy fathers.\" Job 20:11\nand go a: Exo 32:6, Exo 34:15; Lev 20:3-6; Jdg 2:17-20; Psa 73:27, Psa 106:39; Isa 57:3-8; Jer 3:1-3; Eze 16:15, Eze 16:25-36, Eze 23:5-8, Eze 23:9-21; Hos 2:2-5; Rev 17:2-5, Rev 19:2\nforsake me: Deu 32:15; Jdg 2:12, Jdg 10:6, Jdg 10:13; Jer 2:11-13\nbreak my: Lev 26:15; Jdg 2:20; Jer 31:32\nmy anger: Deu 29:20, Deu 32:21, Deu 32:22; Jdg 2:14, Jdg 2:15; Psa 2:12, Psa 90:11\nI will forsake: Ch1 28:9; Ch2 15:2; Jer 23:33, Jer 23:39; Hos 9:12\nhide my face: Though this may allude to the withdrawing of the Shechinah, or visible appearance of Jehovah, yet the general meaning of the expression in Scripture is, the withdrawing of his approbation and protection, of which his visible appearance was formerly the sign and pledge.
