And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows; — Exodus 3:7
God now reveals that He has seen the affliction of His people, heard their cry, and knows their sorrows. The language is deeply personal. God is not ignorant of Israel’s pain. He sees, hears, and knows.
This verse emphasizes divine compassion. The suffering of God’s people has not escaped His notice. He is not detached from their oppression.
