“Red Sea” From
Concise Bible Dictionary

This
sea
is renowned in
Old
Testament
history on account of the miraculous
passage
made for the Israelites, and the
destruction
of their enemies therein.
The Red Sea, situated on the
east
of
Egypt
and the
west
of
South
Arabia
, is somewhat in the form of
the letter
Y
. Its southern extremity opens into the Indian Ocean, from whence it runs N.N.W. for about 1,400 miles, when it divides into two branches; the one on the east being the Gulf of Akaba, about 112 miles long; and the one on the west, the Gulf of Suez, about 200 miles long. It is the latter that the Israelites crossed, and, as is supposed, farther
north
than the gulf now extends, but the position is not known. It is to this branch that the Suez Canal has been attached, opening a passage to the Mediterranean Sea.
THE PASSAGE OF THE RED SEA. The number of the Israelites was probably about two millions. They encamped by
the sea
shore and
Pharaoh
naturally thought they were entangled in the land. With his
army
and his chariots he pursued after them. The Israelites greatly feared, but
Moses
said, “Fear ye not, stand still, and see the
salvation
of
Jehovah
.” The angel of
God
and the
pillar
of the
cloud
went between the Israelites and the
Egyptians
. To the Israelites the cloud gave
light
, but to the Egyptians it was a cloud of
darkness
, all
night
. Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and God caused a strong east
wind
to blow all that night, and the waters were divided, and the Israelites went over on dry land.
Pharaoh had not yet learned the
power
of Jehovah, and the Egyptians pursued them. God fought for the Israelites: He embarrassed the Egyptians, took off the
chariot
wheels
, and thus so hindered them that they began to see that Jehovah was opposing them. It was, however, too late to retreat, Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and it returned in its strength, and they were overwhelmed. Their dead bodies were cast up on the sea shore.
The
faith
of the Israelites was confirmed by the destruction of the Egyptians: they feared Jehovah, and believed Jehovah and His
servant
Moses. He and the Israelites could then sing the song of
redemption
, and
praise
Him who had
purchased
them. He also would plant them in the mountain of His
inheritance
, yea, in the
sanctuary
which His hands had established. Jehovah shall reign
forever
and ever (Ex. 14-15). For the typical
teaching
of the passage of the Red Sea, see
