Context of Exodus 15:6
4He threw Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea; the elite of his officers were drowned in the Red Sea. 5The floods covered them; they sank to the depths like a stone. Lord, your right hand is glorious in power. Lord, your right hand shattered the enemy. 7You overthrew your adversaries by your great majesty. You unleashed your burning wrath; it consumed them like stubble. 8The water heaped up at the blast from your nostrils; the currents stood firm like a dam. The watery depths congealed in the heart of the sea.
