TSNTyndale Study Notes:

19:20 The altar (19:19) would be a sign and a witness of the Egyptians’ religious connection with Israel (see 19:24-25).
• God answers the prayers of those who cry to the Lord for help.
• The Lord is a savior; he would protect the Egyptians even as he protected Jerusalem from the Assyrians.
