Thirdly,1 The allusion may be carried to the destruction of Pharaoh and the Egyptians in the red Sea; They also were overflown with a flood. The waters of the red Sea which stood up as a wall for Israel to pass through, at the Command of God returning upon the Egyptians, swallowed them up, them and their Chariots and their horses. The enemy said (thus Moses describes that fatal overthrow (Exod. 15.9, 10.) I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil: my lust shall be satisfied upon them, I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. Thus the enemy raged & foamed with revenge, like a tempestuous Sea, and had opened all the sluices of his will to overflow them. And when the enemy had thus breathed out his wrath in a four times repeated, I will; Then the Lord did blow with his wind, the Sea covered them, They sank as lead in the mighty waters. So then the words may relate to any of those three signal Judgements, to the drowning of the old world with a flood of water, to the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah with a flood of fire, or to the overthrow of Pharaoh and his Egyptian host in the red Sea.
