Exodus 2:23-25 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage… 1. It was long delayed. (1) Till tyranny had done its worst. (2) Till the last hope of help from man had disappeared. Improvement may have been looked for at death of king. 2. It came at last. (1) When the bondage had served its ends. (2) When the people, in despair of man, were crying to God. 3. When it did come - (1) The man was found ready who was to bring it. (2) God was found faithful to his promise. - J.O.
