Printed Caption:
Pharaoh
and his host drowned in the red Sea.
Exodus 14:23-28
And the Egyptians
pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even
all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. And
it came to pass, that in the morning watch the Lord looked
unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire
and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily:
so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel;
for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians. And
the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the
sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon
their chariots, and upon their horsemen. And Moses stretched
forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength
when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against
it; and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the
sea. And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and
the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came
into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one
of them. (KJV)
