The Israelites pass through the Red sea, which drowns the Egyptians When Israel saw The phrase "When Israel saw" indicates a moment of revelation and realization for the Israelites.

Historically, this moment marks a turning point where the Israelites witness firsthand the divine power that has been guiding them, reinforcing their faith and trust in God's promises. the great power that the LORD had exercised against the Egyptians the people feared the LORD and believed in Him and in His servant Moses Verse 31. - And Israel saw that great work. The "work" was, at the least, (1) the (almost) entire destruction of that arm of the service - the chariot force-on which the Egyptian kings mainly relied for success in all their wars; and (2) the defeat and disgrace of the Egyptian king himself, in an expedition for which he was alone responsible, involving permanent discredit to his military capacity, and naturally tending to shake his authority over his subjects.

They believe the entire warrior caste or class to have taken part in the expedition, and to have been destroyed in the Red Sea Thus they describe the calamity as "the total annihilation of the whole military force of the Egyptians" (Kalisch). They also believe the Pharaoh to have perished with his host. To the present writer it seems that the former opinion is contrary both to the text of Scripture, and to the after course of Egyptian history, for it is agreed on all hands that Egypt continued nearly as powerful as before, while the latter he regards as at least exceedingly doubtful.
