Context of Exodus 15:11

9The enemy said, ‘I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; My desire shall be satisfied against them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall dispossess them and drive them out.’ 10You blew with Your wind, the sea covered them; [Clad in armor] they sank like lead in the mighty waters. Who is like You among the gods, O Lord? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, Awesome in splendor, working wonders? 12You stretched out Your right hand, The sea swallowed them. 13You in Your lovingkindness and goodness have led the people whom You have redeemed; In Your strength You have guided them with care to Your holy habitation.

Commentaries on Exodus 15:11

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 11Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? - We have already seen that all the Egyptian gods, or the objects of the Egyptians' idolatry, were confounded, and rendered completely despicable, by the ten plagues, which appear to have been directed principally against them.
