Contextual Overview

¹ Then the Lord said to Moses: ² Tell the Israelites to turn back and camp in front of Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, in front of Baal-zephon; you shall camp opposite it, by the sea. ³ Pharaoh will say of the Israelites, "They are wandering aimlessly in the land; the wilderness has closed in on them." ⁴ I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will pursue them, so that I will gain glory for myself over Pharaoh and all his army; and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord . And they did so. ⁵ When the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, the minds of Pharaoh and his officials were changed toward the people, and they said, "What have we done, letting Israel leave our service?" ⁶ So he had his chariot made ready, and took his army with him; ⁷ he took six hundred picked chariots and all the other chariots of Egypt with officers over all of them. ⁸ The Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt and he pursued the Israelites, who were going out boldly. ⁹ The Egyptians pursued them, all Pharaoh's horses and chariots, his chariot drivers and his army; they overtook them camped by the sea, by Pi-hahiroth, in front of Baal-zephon.

saying; as follows:

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XIV

The Israelites are commanded to encamp before Pi-hahiroth,

1, 2.

God predicts the pursuit of Pharaoh, 3, 4.

Pharaoh is informed that the Israelites are fled, and regrets

that he suffered them to depart, 5.

He musters his troops and pursues them, 6-8.

Overtakes them in their encampment by the Red Sea, 9.

The Israelites are terrified at his approach, 10.

They murmur against Moses for leading them out, 11, 12.

Moses encourages them, and assures them of deliverance, 13, 14.

God commands the Israelites to advance, and Moses to stretch

out his rod over the sea that it might be divided, 15, 16;

and promises utterly to discomfit the Egyptians, 17, 18.

The angel of God places himself between the Israelites and the

Egyptians, 19.

The pillar of the cloud becomes darkness to the Egyptians,

while it gives light to the Israelites, 20.

Moses stretches out his rod, and a strong east wind blows, and

the waters are divided, 21.

The Israelites enter and walk on dry ground, 22.

The Egyptians enter also in pursuit of the Israelites, 23.

The Lord looks out of the pillar of cloud on the Egyptians,

terrifies them, and disjoints their chariots, 24, 25.

Moses is commanded to stretch forth his rod over the waters, that

they may return to their former bed, 26.

He does so, and the whole Egyptian army is overwhelmed, 27, 28,

while every Israelite escapes, 29.

Being thus saved from the hand of their adversaries, they acknowledge

the power of God, and credit the mission of Moses, 30, 31.
