Wesley's Notes for Hebrews 11:25

11:23 They saw - Doubtless with a divine presage of things to come.

11:24 Refused to be called - Any longer.

11:26 The reproach of Christ - That which he bore for believing in the Messiah to come, and acting accordingly. For he looked off - From all those perishing treasures, and beyond all those temporal hardships Unto the recompence of reward - Not to an inheritance in Canaan; he had no warrant from God to look for this, nor did he ever attain it; but what his believing ancestors looked for, - a future state of happiness in heaven.

11:27 By faith he left Egypt - Taking all the Israelites with him. Not then fearing the wrath of the king - As he did many years before, #Ex 2:14|. #Ex 14:15|, &c.
