Abstract

Taken literally, the book Shemot [names, in Hebrew, which is the second word at the beginning of the text] or Exodus, as it is known in many languages, begins with a list of the names of those who went down to Egypt, and then presents a narrative of consecutive incidents and events. This article analyzes, between the two parts in which Shemot can be divided, liberation and the covenant with divine commandments, one of the most beautiful songs in the Bible, which brings some relief in the midst of these moments. It is the "Song of the Sea", present in chapter 15, 1-18, sung by Moses and the children of Israel.
