Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The People of Fir`awn drown in the Sea; the Children of Israel inherit the Holy LandAllah states that when the people of Fir`awn rebelled and transgressed, even though He inflicted them with consecutive signs, one after another, He took retribution from them by drowning them in the sea that Musa parted by Allah's power, and he and the Children of Israel passed through. In their pursuit, Fir`awn and his soldiers went in the sea chasing Musa and his people.
