Exodus 13:17-18
17Now when Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, even though it was near; for God said, “1The people might change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt.”
18Hence God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the 2Red Sea; and the sons of Israel went up 3in martial array from the land of Egypt.
