Commentary

Commentary

But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea,.... The b ottom of it becoming so through the strong east wind, which blew all night until they came to the opposite shore, where they landed on "terra firma"; and so Noldius renders the phrase "through the sea"; that is, from shore to shore: and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left; See Gill on Exo 14:22 .
