Liturgy על שמות 3:7

My beloved resembles a gazelle or a young hart; behold, he stands behind our wall, observing through the windows peering through the lattices.²⁰ Rashi interprets this verse as referring to the exodus from Egypt. Israel declares: “I thought I would be an עֲגוּנָה (a woman bereft of her husband while still legally bound to him) for many more days. Then suddenly—behold, He made it known that He was peering through the windows of heaven taking notice of my suffering, as it said [Exodus 3:7] “I have truly seen the affliction of My people.”
