Exodus14:8
8 And the LORD hardned the heart of Pharaoh King of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with an high hand .
Either 1. Of God, with a Divine hand or power, by comparing Exod. 13. 16. Or, 2. Their own, not with hands hanging down, a posture betraying weakness and fainting, fear, and shame, Heb. 12. 12. but with hands lifted up, with courage and confidence, not like fugitives, but like valiant and victorious Souldiers, openly, boldly, resolvedly; as men are said to sin with an high hand, Numb. 15. 30. that sin in such a manner.
Marginal references: Numb. 33. 3.
