📚 Historical Context
This verse is from Psalm 106, a song of praise that recounts Israel's history and God's faithful acts toward them, especially during the Exodus from Egypt. The "land of Ham" refers to Egypt, as Ham was a son of Noah whose descendants settled there, and it highlights the miracles like the plagues that God used to deliver His people. The "terrible things by the Red Sea" point to the dramatic event where God parted the waters to save the Israelites and destroy the pursuing Egyptian army, as described in the book of Exodus.
