TradCatKnight: Fr. Campbell- “God Himself will come and save you” (Is.33:4b)
In Holy Scripture, the name of Egypt stands, symbolically, for all that is corrupt and against God. God called the Israelites out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses, where they had lived for four hundred and thirty years. In Egypt it would have been impossible for them to know the true God because they were surrounded by a pagan culture. But in the isolation of the desert, and deprived of every comfort but their daily ration of manna, at least a few of them were ready to meet God at Sinai and learn of His Commandments.
