Psalms 18:15

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 18:15. Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.

At the Red Sea, Moses sang, "Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters; "but, here, David does not represent God as sending forth a great wind, but as if, in his eagerness to help his servant, his very nostrils gave forth such a mighty blast as made the sea to divide, so that "the channels of the waters were seen." It is one of the most vivid pieces of poetry that ever fell from the pen of inspired or uninspired man.
