And thou didst divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on dry land, etc.] That is, the Israelites, (see <021421> Exodus 14:21), and their persecutors thou threwest into the deeps; with great ease, and with indignation, meaning the Egyptians, that pursued hotly after them, and were thrown into the sea: as a stone into the mighty waters; where they sunk and perished, (see <021504> Exodus 15:4,10).
