In the context of <a href="/exodus/15.htm">Exodus 15</a>, this refers to the Egyptians who pursued the Israelites after their escape from slavery. The overthrow of adversaries is a recurring theme in the Bible, demonstrating God's protection and deliverance of His people. This can be seen in other instances such as the defeat of the Canaanites (<a href="/joshua/10-10.htm">Joshua 10:10</a>) and the Philistines (<a href="/1_samuel/7-10.htm">1 Samuel 7:10</a>). The term "adversaries" can also be understood spiritually, representing the forces of evil that oppose God's purposes.<p><b>by Your great majesty</b><br>The majesty of God refers to His supreme authority and glory. In the context of the Exodus, God's majesty was displayed through the miraculous parting of the Red Sea and the subsequent destruction of the Egyptian army. This event is a testament to God's unparalleled power and serves as a reminder of His ability to accomplish His will. The majesty of God is a central theme throughout Scripture, as seen in passages like <a href="/psalms/93.htm">Psalm 93:1</a> and <a href="/isaiah/6.htm">Isaiah 6:1</a>, where God's glory and authority are exalted.<p><b>You unleashed Your burning wrath</b><br>The concept of God's wrath is often associated with His justice and holiness. In the Exodus narrative, God's wrath was directed against the Egyptians for their oppression of the Israelites and their defiance of His commands. The "burning" aspect of God's wrath emphasizes its intensity and consuming nature. This is consistent with other biblical accounts where God's wrath is depicted as a consuming fire (<a href="/deuteronomy/4-24.htm">Deuteronomy 4:24</a>, <a href="/hebrews/12-29.htm">Hebrews 12:29</a>). It serves as a warning of the consequences of sin and rebellion against God.<p><b>it consumed them like stubble</b><br>The imagery of stubble being consumed by fire illustrates the complete and swift destruction of the Egyptians. Stubble, being dry and brittle, burns quickly and thoroughly, symbolizing the ease with which God can execute judgment. This metaphor is used elsewhere in Scripture to describe the fate of the wicked (<a href="/isaiah/5-24.htm">Isaiah 5:24</a>, <a href="/malachi/4.htm">Malachi 4:1</a>). It underscores the futility of opposing God and the certainty of His judgment against those who resist His will.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/g/god.htm">God (Yahweh)</a></b><br>The central figure in this verse, demonstrating His power and majesty in overthrowing His enemies.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/e/enemies_of_god.htm">Enemies of God</a></b><br>Those who rise against God and His people, symbolizing opposition to divine will.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_exodus.htm">The Exodus</a></b><br>The broader context of this verse, where God delivers the Israelites from Egyptian bondage, showcasing His power and judgment.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_red_sea.htm">The Red Sea</a></b><br>The miraculous event where God parted the sea, allowing the Israelites to escape and subsequently destroying the Egyptian army.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses_and_the_israelites.htm">Moses and the Israelites</a></b><br>The recipients of God's deliverance, who sing this song of praise in response to His mighty acts.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty_and_power.htm">God's Sovereignty and Power</a></b><br>Recognize that God is supreme over all creation and His plans cannot be thwarted by human opposition.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/d/divine_judgment.htm">Divine Judgment</a></b><br>Understand that God's judgment is righteous and just, consuming those who oppose Him like stubble.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_majesty_of_god.htm">The Majesty of God</a></b><br>Reflect on the greatness of God's majesty, which is evident in His acts of deliverance and judgment.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/trust_in_god's_deliverance.htm">Trust in God's Deliverance</a></b><br>Trust that God will deliver His people from their enemies, just as He did for the Israelites.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/response_of_worship.htm">Response of Worship</a></b><br>Respond to God's mighty acts with worship and praise, acknowledging His power and faithfulness.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_exodus_15.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Exodus 15</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_is_belief_in_the_son_of_god.htm">What does fearing God mean?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/can_rev_15_6-7_angels'_sashes_be_historical.htm">Revelation 15:6-7 depicts angels with golden sashes--can this imagery be reconciled with known historical or archaeological findings?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_does_god_kill_uzzah_for_touching_the_ark.htm">Why does God kill Uzzah instantly for touching the Ark to prevent it from falling (2 Samuel 6:7)?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what's_circumcision's_role_in_the_bible.htm">How does God's wrath manifest in the Bible?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/exodus/15.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 7.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Thou hast overthrown</span>, etc. Here again the verbs are future.
