When Hope Fails, God Hears
Commentators note that the death of the Egyptian king didn't bring relief; it made things worse. This dashed the Israelites' earthly hopes, causing them to cry out to God with new intensity. John Calvin suggests that this despair, with all other options exhausted, finally drove them to earnestly seek God, showing how trials can turn our hearts fully toward Him.
