Gregory of Nazianzus, on Exod 12:37

“And the children of Israel set forward from Ramesse to Socoth, being about six hundred thousand men on foot, beside children.”

“Joseph came into Egypt alone, and soon thereafter six hundred thousand depart from Egypt. What is more marvelous than this? What greater proof of the generosity of God, when from persons without means he wills to supply the means for public affairs?”
