شرح للأطفال

Imagine you're playing a game of tag with your friends, and you have to cross a river to get away. Your friend, who is 'it', chases you into the river with all their friends. That's what happened here, but with a much bigger river and lots of soldiers and horses.

السياق التاريخي

This passage was written by Moses around 1446 BC, detailing the Israelites' escape from Egypt. The audience was the Israelites themselves, and it took place during a time of slavery and the early stages of their journey to the Promised Land.
