Exodus 14:27-28 KJV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Exodus 14:21-31

We have here the history of that work of wonder which is so often mentioned both in the Old and New Testament, the dividing of the Red Sea before th 3b1a e children of Israel. It was the terror of the Canaanites (Josh. 2:9, 10), the praise and triumph of the Israelites, Ps. 114:3; Ps. 106:9; 136:13, 14. It was a type of baptism, 1 Cor. 10:1, 2. Israel's passage through it was typical of the conversion of souls (Isa. 11:15), and the Egyptians? perdition in it was typical of the final ruin of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 14:27

And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea ,.... Or towards it, as he was ordered, the rod being in his hand, as before observed: and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared ; being no longer detained by a superior power, contrary to the nature of it, to stand still as an heap, and firm as a wall, its waves came down and rolled with their usual force and strength, or it returned to its usual course: at the appearance of the morning in its strength ; when the... read more

And the waters returned ,.... To their place, and so in the above tradition related by Diodorus Siculus, it is said that the sea returning with a mighty force was restored to its place again; See Gill on Exodus 14:22 . and covered the chariots and the horsemen ; the wall they made being much higher than a man on horseback, when they fell down, covered even those who had the advantage of horses and chariots; and much more must the infantry be covered by them, who may be meant in the... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 14:28

There remained not so much as one of them - Josephus says that the army of Pharaoh consisted of fifty thousand horse, and two hundred thousand foot, of whom not one remained to carry tidings of this most extraordinary catastrophe. read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 14:28

Verse 28 28.And the waters returned. In these two verses also Moses continues the same relation. It plainly appears from Josephus and Eusebius what silly tales Manetho (158) and others have invented about the Exodus of the people; for although Satan has attempted by their falsehoods to overshadow the truth of sacred history, so foolish and trifling are their accounts that they need not refutation. The time itself, which they indicate, sufficiently convicts them of ignorance. But God has... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 14:13-31

God completes the deliverance of the Israelites from Pharaoh and removes their terror. I. NOTE THE WAY IN WHICH MOSES MEETS THE COMPLAINTS OF THE ISRAELITES . They had addressed to him sarcastic, flippant, and in every way unworthy speeches. They were not so filled with fear, not so occupied with the troubles of their own hearts, but that they could find a malignant delight in striving to make him ridiculous. This mingling of feelings on their part, fear mingled... read more

The goodness and severity of God. I. WHAT GOD IS TO HIS OWN IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE . 1 . He comes between them and their foes. God's presence is between us and our enemies, and they can do no more against us than his love permits. 2 . He is light to them in the time of peril. 3 . The waters are divided before them However much our way may seem hedged in, God's arm will open up a path for us. 4 . The way was not only a path of escape, but one of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 14:23-30

God's dealings with the wicked and impenitent. If the passage of Israel through the Red Sea shows conspicuously God's protection of his people in the time of trouble, the overthrow of the Egyptians indicates, at least as conspicuously, his execution of wrath upon the wicked. I. First of all, IT IS NOTICEABLE HOW HIS EYE UPON THEIR HEARTS , LOOKING INTO THEM THROUGH THE CLOUD AND DARKNESS WHEREIN THEY ARE ENVELOPED , TROUBLES THEM . Bad men... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 14:23-31

The overthrow of the Egyptians. "The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea," etc. On this observe:— I. THE INFATUATION OF THE PURSUERS ( Exodus 14:23 ). We do not speak of the lessons they had already received as to the folly of contending with Jehovah. The plagues were past. The memory of them had been cast behind their backs. What we do wonder at is, that when the Egyptians reached the shore, and saw there what they did see, they were not... read more
