John Chrysostom, on Acts 13:18

“And for the space of forty years endured their manners in the desert.”

“Of these things, the wonders which were done in Egypt, the prophets are continually making mention. And observe, how he passes over the times of their calamities, and nowhere brings forward their faults, but only God's kindness, leaving those for themselves to think over. "And about the time of forty years suffered He their manners in the wilderness."”
