Compare all
1 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh. For awith a strong hand he will let them go, and with a strong hand bhe will drive them out of his land.”  
2 And God spoke to Moses and said to him: “I am1 the Lord.
3 aI appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as bGod Almighty, but by My name cLord I was not known to them.  
4 aI have also established My covenant with them, bto give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, cin which they were strangers.  
5 And aI have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered My covenant.

He chooses to take them as His people and He does not just leave them defend for themselves once they are free. He then visibly leads them as we know by the pillar of cloud and fire to the Promised Land and just gives it to them as their inheritance. He does not mention it here, but He also gave them water, He fed them, He protected them from the sun, He made their shoes and their clothes last, and He promised to fight all their battles. As we are fond of saying, all the Israelites had to do was walk.
