Our forefathers in Egypt did not perceive Your wonders;
they did not remember Your abundant love,
but rebelled at the sea, at the Sea of Reeds.
7
Our fathers in Egypt gave no heed unto Thy wonders; they remembered not the multitude of Thy mercies; but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
וַיַּמְרוּ עַל יָם. הָיוּ מִקְּטַנֵּי אֲמָנָה; אָמְרוּ: כְּשֵׁם שֶׁאָנוּ עוֹלִים מִכָּאן מִצַּד זֶה, אַף הַמִּצְרִיִּים עוֹלִים מִצַּד אַחֵר, וְיָבוֹאוּ אַחֲרֵינוּ; עַד שֶׁרָמַז הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא לַיָּם וְהֵקִיאָם לַיַּבָּשָׁה. אָז ״וַיַּרְא יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת מִצְרַיִם מֵת עַל שְׂפַת הַיָּם״ (שמות יד:ל), לְפִיכָךְ ״וַיַּאֲמִינוּ בַּה׳״ (שמות יד:לא); אֲבָל מִתְּחִלָּה לֹא הֶאֱמִינוּ (פסחים קיח:) (מצאתי):
and they were rebellious by the sea They had little faith; they said, “Just as we ascend from here, from this side, the Egyptians also are ascending from another side, and they will come after us,” until the Holy One, blessed be He, hinted to the sea, and it vomited them out onto the dry land. Then (Exod. 14:30) “Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.” Therefore (ibid. verse 31) “they believed in the Lord,” but in the beginning, they did not believe. I found this.
