Contextual Overview

¹ Adonai said to Moshe, ² "Tell the people of Isra'el to turn around and set up camp in front of Pi-Hachirot, between Migdol and the sea, in front of Ba‘al-Tz'fon; camp opposite it, by the sea. ³ Then Pharaoh will say that the people of Isra'el are wandering aimlessly in the countryside, the desert has closed in on them. ⁴ I will make Pharaoh so hardhearted that he will pursue them; thus I will win glory for myself at the expense of Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will realize at last that I am Adonai ." The people did as ordered. ⁵ When the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, Pharaoh and his servants had a change of heart toward the people. They said, "What have we done, letting Isra'el stop being our slaves?" ⁶ So he prepared his chariots and took his people with him — ⁷ he took 600 first-quality chariots, as well as all the other chariots in Egypt, along with their commanders. ⁸ Adonai made Pharaoh hardhearted, and he pursued the people of Isra'el, as they left boldly. ⁹ (ii) The Egyptians went after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, with his cavalry and army, and overtook them as they were encamped by the sea, by Pi-Hachirot, in front of Ba‘al-Tz'fon.

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.
