It took just one day for GOD to take the Israelites out of Egypt, but it took GOD 40 years in the Wilderness to take Egypt out of them. The Israelites have been addicted with Egyptian lifestyle for 430 years. GOD'S wisdom demands that they spend some length of time to rehabilitate, reconstruct and refine them. Anyways, he who has ears to hear, let him hear.
