God's Mysterious Path
Commentators explain this verse has a dual meaning. Literally, it refers to God's miraculous path for Israel through the Red Sea, a path that vanished once they crossed. Metaphorically, it teaches that God's ways in our lives are often mysterious and untraceable. As Albert Barnes notes, we cannot see His footprints, so we should trust His plan even when we cannot comprehend it.
