Exodus 15:8 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 15:8

And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered
together
From the bottom of the sea, and divided and laid on heaps; and this by a strong east wind, called the blast of the nostrils of the Lord, because as easily brought by him as a man's breath or wind is drawn through his nostrils; and thus Christ with the breath of his mouth, and the brightness of his coming, will destroy antichrist, ( 2 Thessalonians 2:8 ) ( Isaiah 11:4 ) the floods stood upright as an heap;
though a fluid body, yet by the power of Christ were raised up and continued upright, firm and consistent; as things dry and solid may be laid and heaped up on one another, and remain firm and stable; and so did the waters of the sea, they stood like a wall, and were as firm as a rock; while the Israelites passed between them, they stood upright, and lift up their hands, as if they blessed them; or blessed God for the deliverance of them, or in admiration of it; see ( Exodus 14:22 ) ( Habakkuk 3:10 ) ,

Exodus 15:8 In-Context

6 Deine Rechte, Jehova, ist herrlich in Macht; deine Rechte, Jehova, hat zerschmettert den Feind.
7 Und in der Größe deiner Hoheit hast du niedergerissen, die sich wider dich erhoben; du ließest deine Zornglut los: sie hat sie verzehrt wie Stoppeln.
8 Und durch den Hauch deiner Nase türmten sich die Wasser, es standen die Strömungen wie ein Damm, es gerannen die Fluten im Herzen des Meeres.
9 Der Feind sprach: Ich will nachjagen, einholen, Beute teilen; meine Gier soll sich sättigen an ihnen; ich will mein Schwert ziehen, meine Hand soll sie vertilgen.
10 Du hauchtest mit deinem Odem, das Meer bedeckte sie; sie sanken unter wie Blei in die gewaltigen Wasser.
