Commentaries on Exodus 15:2
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 2The Lord is my strength and song - How judiciously are the members of this sentence arranged!

They are situated somewhat farther northward along the shore than the opposite point from which the Israelites set out. But the line of the people would be extended during the passage, and one extremity of it would reach as far north as these…Read the comment
