Éxodo 14:3 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 14:3

For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel
The Septuagint version adds, "to his people", his ministers and courtiers, when he hears where they are: they are entangled in the land;
have lost their way, and got into places they cannot easily get out of, and are perplexed in their minds, and do not know what way to take or course to steer: the wilderness hath shut them in;
or, "shut up the way to them" F14; the wilderness between the mountains the above mentioned traveller speaks of F15 the mountains of Gewoubee; these would stop their flight or progress to the southward, as those of the Attackah would do the same towards the land of the Philistines; the Red sea likewise lay before them to the east, while Pharaoh (could) close up the valley behind them, with his chariots and his horsemen; and which, no doubt, appeared very advantageous and encouraging to him, as it must be very distressing to the Israelites.

Éxodo 14:3 In-Context

1 Y el SE脩OR habl贸 a Mois茅s, diciendo:
2 Di a los hijos de Israel que den la vuelta y acampen delante de Pi-hahirot, entre Migdol y el mar; acampar茅is frente a Baal-zef贸n, en el lado opuesto, junto al mar.
3 Porque Fara贸n dir谩 de los hijos de Israel: "Andan vagando sin rumbo por la tierra; el desierto los ha encerrado."
4 Y yo endurecer茅 el coraz贸n de Fara贸n, y 茅l los perseguir谩; y yo ser茅 glorificado por medio de Fara贸n y de todo su ej茅rcito, y sabr谩n los egipcios que yo soy el SE脩OR. Y as铆 lo hicieron.
5 Cuando le anunciaron al rey de Egipto que el pueblo hab铆a huido, Fara贸n y sus siervos cambiaron de actitud hacia el pueblo, y dijeron: 驴Qu茅 es esto que hemos hecho, que hemos permitido que Israel se fuera, dejando de servirnos?
