Êxodo 14:14 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 14:14

The Lord shall fight for you
By commanding the wind of the heavens, and the waves of the sea, and employing them against their enemies, and on their behalf; they being unarmed, and so not in a condition to fight for themselves, as well as they had no heart or spirit for it:

and ye shall hold your peace;
be still, and quiet, and easy in your minds, and forbear saying or doing anything; "be silent"; and neither express the fear and distress of their minds, by any mournful sounds, nor their joy of faith by shouts and huzzas; as they could not draw a sword, they were not so much as to blow a trumpet, and break a pitcher, and cry the sword of the Lord, and of Israel as they after did on another occasion, at least their posterity.

Êxodo 14:14 In-Context

12 Já tínhamos dito a você no Egito: ‘Deixe-nos em paz! Seremos escravos dos egípcios!’ Antes ser escravos dos egípcios do que morrer no deserto!”

13 Moisés respondeu ao povo: “Não tenham medo. Fiquem firmes e vejam o livramento que o SENHOR trará hoje, porque vocês nunca mais verão os egípcios que hoje veem.

14 O SENHOR lutará por vocês; tão somente acalmem-se”.

15 Disse então o SENHOR a Moisés: “Por que você está clamando a mim? Diga aos israelitas que sigam avante.

16 Erga a sua vara e estenda a mão sobre o mar, e as águas se dividirão para que os israelitas atravessem o mar em terra seca.
