“I have now heard the moaning of the Israelites because the Egyptians are holding them in bondage, and I have remembered My covenant.” (Exodus 6:5) We must learn to listen to the still small voice. This quote comes without a request. In the text of the Torah we know the Jewish people are suffering but this sentence does not follow any indication that the Jewish people are crying out. Yet, they must have. Here we see God listens in such a way that even the inaudible is heard. So, too, we must learn to listen carefully.
