9:7 the Ethiopians (literally the Cushites): Cush (see Gen 10:6-7) was south of the Second Cataract of the Nile (cp. Isa 18:1) and was often linked with Egypt, its neighbor to the north. • Israel’s exodus out of Egypt is compared to two other ancient migrations: the Philistines from Crete (see also Jer 47:4) and the Arameans out of Kir (cp. Amos 1:5; 2 Kgs 16:9).
