Êxodo 15:8

8 Pelo forte sopro das tuas narinasas águas se amontoaram.As águas turbulentas firmaram-se como muralha;as águas profundas congelaram-se no coração do mar.

Êxodo 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 ) ,

Êxodo 15:8 In-Context

6 SENHOR, a tua mão direitafoi majestosa em poder.SENHOR, a tua mão direitadespedaçou o inimigo.

7 “Em teu triunfo grandioso,derrubaste os teus adversários.Enviaste o teu furor flamejante,que os consumiu como palha.

8 Pelo forte sopro das tuas narinasas águas se amontoaram.As águas turbulentas firmaram-se como muralha;as águas profundas congelaram-se no coração do mar.

9 “O inimigo se gloriava:‘Eu os perseguirei e os alcançarei,dividirei o despojo e os devorarei.Com a espada na mão,eu os destruirei’.

10 Mas enviaste o teu sopro,e o mar os encobriu.Afundaram como chumbonas águas volumosas.
