Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

3:7-10 God notices the afflictions of Israel. Their sorrows; even the secret sorrows of God's people are known to him. Their cry; God hears the cries of his afflicted people.

Those whom God, by his grace, delivers out of a spiritual Egypt, he will bring to a heavenly Canaan.
