Exodus 14:19-21King James Version (KJV)<br />

19 And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and<br />

the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:<br />

20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and<br />

darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the<br />

night.<br />

21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a<br />

strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.<br />

Each of these verse refer to a character of God viz. chesed, gevura, and tiferet.<br />

Ex. 14:19 Chesed: God's loving-kindness, or a direct revelation of God's goodness. The word<br />

chesed means kindness or benevolence. It denotes the unbounded loving-kindness with which God<br />

created the worlds and with which all of creation is permeated, as the verse states, "The world was<br />

built with chesed" (Psalms 89:3)<br />
