📚 Historical Context
In the book of Exodus, the Israelites had just escaped from slavery in Egypt and were being pursued by Pharaoh's army to the edge of the Red Sea, leaving them trapped and terrified. Moses spoke these words to encourage the people, assuring them that God Himself would intervene in their battle rather than relying on their own strength. This event underscores God's miraculous deliverance as a foundational story of faith in the Old Testament.
