Chumash Classes: Beshalach, Part 5: The B'nai Yisrael sing "Az Yashir"
Chp. 15 verses 4 - 16: Continues with the "Az Yashir" How Hashem drowned the chariots of Pharaoh and his army in the sea. His right hand crushed the enemy. He cast them in the sea as stubble, stone, or lead commensurate with their level of cruelty against their Jewish slaves. In the middle of the song they praised Hashem with the famous words "Who is like You among the mighty O L-rd…." Finishes off with the description of the fear and trepidation of the nations over the miracles and wonders that Hashem had performed for the nation which He had acquired.
