Exodus 14:30 - Exposition

Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea-shore . Josephus says ( Ant. Jud. Exodus 2:16 , § 6), that, after the passage of the sea by the Israelites, a west wind set in, which (assisted by the current) drove the bodies of the drowned Egyptians to the eastern side of the gulf, where many of them were cast up upon the shore. In this way Moses, according to him, obtained weapons and armour for a considerable number of Israelites.
