Passage
You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, how I have carried you upon the wings of eagles, and have taken you to myself.

Study Lenses
The verse centers on "seen", "done", "egyptians", "carried", "upon", "wings", "eagles", and "taken". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "seen" and "done", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The nearby context moves from verse 3's "And Moses went up to God and..." into verse 7's "Moses came and calling together the elders...", so "seen" and "done" belong inside that flow. In Exodus context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "seen" and "done" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
