Ambrose of Milan, on Exod 2:15

“And Pharao heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Madian, and he sat down by a well.”

“Moses went out from Egypt and was made a prophet and sent back to the people that he might free their souls from the land of affliction.”
