Commentary on Hebrews 11:29

Theological / Devotional

By faith. See on verses 1, 3.

Through the Red sea. For the record of the incident here mentioned see Exodus 14:10–31. The deliverance of God’s chosen people at the Red Sea is referred to more often throughout the Old Testament than any other manifestation of divine provision for them in all their history. The greatness of the deliverance reflects the magnitude of the crisis, and the magnitude of the crisis is a measure of the degree of faith needed by God’s appointed representative, Moses.
