Commentary on Exodus 15:16
The cause of enemy fear: 'Fear and dread shall fall upon them.' The phrase 'by the greatness of thine arm' credits divine power for psychological victory. The result: 'they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.' The repetition 'pass over' echoes Passover—God's people 'pass over' obstacles while enemies are paralyzed. The term 'purchased' (qanah, קָנָה) indicates ownership by right of redemption price paid.
