Bo (בא ) has a gematria of 3. That makes me call to mind the 3 Patriarchs. Therefore, it signals what a great leader Moshe Rabbeinu would be for our people. We, too, can and will do great things for our and all people.

Va'era (6:2-9:35)
Moses is nervous but must lead his people. With great power comes great responsibility. Hashem appears as a burning bush in yet another example of the power of light. But before there can be light, there must be a spark. Mitzvot are are sparks to be the light among nations.
Shemot (Ex. 1:1-6:1)
By Moses' life being spared, the Jewish people had a leader. "Whosoever that saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world." (Jerusalem Talmud, Sanhedrin 4:1)
