Commentary

Commentary on Psalms 66:6

Theological / Devotional

He turned the sea. A reference to the crossing of the Red Sea (see Ex. 14:21, 22; Ex. 15:1–21).

Through the flood. A reference to the crossing of the Jordan (see Joshua 3:14–17). With poetic license the psalmist unites this epic episode with that of the Red Sea crossing in one grand picture of God’s interposition for Israel.

Did we rejoice. The joy of the Hebrews was expressed in song (see Ex. 15:1–21).
