Bible Verse Review

lift: Exodus 14:21, Exodus 14:26, Exodus 4:2, Exodus 4:17, Exodus 4:20, Exodus 7:9, Exodus 7:19

the sea: This sea was what is called in Scripture yam suph, "the sea of weeds;" so called, according to Mr. Bruce, from the vast quantity of coral which grows in it. In the LXX it is called טבכבףףב וסץטסב, and by the Latins Rubrum mare, and we from them the Red Sea; so called it is supposed, from Edom (red) or Esau, whose territories extend to its coasts. It separates Arabia from Egypt and Ethiopia, and is computed to be 150 leagues in length from Suez to the straits of Babelmandel. The upper part is divided into two gulfs, that to the East called the Elanitic, from the city Elana at the northern extremity, and that to the west, the Heroopolitic, from the city of Heroopolis. The former is called by the Arabians Bahr el Akaba, the sea of Akaba; and the latter Bahr el Kolzum, the sea of destruction, or Clysmז; which was that which the Israelites passed.

and the: Exodus 14:21, Exodus 14:22

Reciprocal: Numbers 20:8 - the rod Deuteronomy 26:8 - the Lord 2 Kings 4:29 - lay my staff Isaiah 43:16 - maketh Isaiah 63:12 - to make Mark 4:39 - he arose

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it,.... Even the same rod with which so many wonders had been done in Egypt; and Artapanus, the Heathen, says x, that Moses being bid by a divine voice to smite the sea with his rod, he hearkened to it, and touched the water with it, and so it divided, as it is said it did, Exodus 14:21

and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea; and so they did, Exodus 14:22.

x Apud Euseb. Praepar. Evangel. l. 9. c. 27. p. 436.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Exodus 14:16. Lift thou up thy rod — Neither Moses nor his rod could be any effective instrument in a work which could be accomplished only by the omnipotence of God; but it was necessary that he should appear in it, in order that he might have credit in the sight of the Israelites, and that they might see that God had chosen him to be the instrument of their deliverance.
