13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:
13 to him who divided the Red Sea in two, for his steadfast love endures forever;
13 Split the Red Sea right in half, His love never quits.
13 To Him who divided the Red Sea in two, For His mercy endures forever;
13 Give thanks to him who parted the Red Sea. His faithful love endures forever.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 136:13
Commentary on Psalm 136:10-22
(Read Psalm 136:10-22)
The great things God did for Israel, when he brought them out of Egypt, were mercies which endured long to them; and our redemption by Christ, which was typified thereby, endures for ever. It is good to enter into the history of God's favours, and in each to observe, and own, that his mercy endureth for ever. He put them in possession of a good land; it was a figure of the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
