A Path Through the Sea

Commentators universally agree that this verse vividly recalls God's miraculous parting of the Red Sea. The imagery of God treading a path through the "heap of mighty waters" is a direct reference to the Exodus. This serves as a powerful reminder that God can turn what seems like an insurmountable obstacle into a pathway for the salvation of His people.
