Allegorical Interpretation of Genesis
[214] Now, however, he says “their cry ascended to God” (Exod. 2:23), bearing witness by so saying to the grace of the existent One; for had He not powerfully called to Himself the suppliant word, it would not have ascended, that is, it would not have been caused to mount, and have grown in volume and begun to soar on high after escaping from the baseness of the things of the earth. Wherefore in the sequel He says, “Behold, the cry of the children of Israel hath come to Me” (Exod. 3:9).
