In Acts 7:20, the passive form occurs as Moses is kept in his father’s house for three months; the APB renders the clause “was brought up.” In Acts 7:21, the middle form is used when Pharaoh’s daughter takes Moses as her own son; the APB renders this “raised him as her own son.” In Acts 22:3, the perfect passive participle describes the speaker’s prior upbringing in the city alongside his education; the APB renders it “brought up in this city.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with “brought up” in Acts 7:20 and Acts 22:3, and with “raised him as her own son” in Acts 7:21. These are clause-level renderings rather than definitions.
