1. God's deliverance at the Exodus 114:1-6 
hide text

114:1-4 When God brought the Israelites out of Egypt He dwelt among them and ruled over them. The names Judah and Israel are in poetic parallelism here and refer to the same group, namely the nation of Israel. Judah was its leading tribe.

The writer personified the Red Sea as seeing the Israelites coming and fleeing from them by parting its waters. Later when the Israelites entered the Promised Land the Jordan River backed up as far as the town of Adam farther north in the Jordan Valley to let them cross. The mountains in the Sinai Peninsula quaked when God came down on Mt. Horeb to meet with His people.
