Significance: Exodus 2:6 records Pharaoh's daughter seeing the infant Moses and having compassion (וַתַּחְמֹל, vattachmol) on him, recognizing him as "one of the Hebrew children"—a moment where divine providence works through pagan compassion to preserve the future deliverer. Leviticus 26:40-42 envisions a future restoration where God will remember His covenant after Israel humbles its heart in exile. The shared theme is divine compassion activating deliverance: in Exodus 2, God uses human pity to preserve His chosen instrument; in Leviticus 26, God Himself acts on covenant compassion once the conditions of confession and humility are met, promising a pattern of restoration that echoes the original Egyptian deliverance.
