וַיִּקַּ֗ח שֵׁשׁ־מֵא֥וֹת רֶ֙כֶב֙ בָּח֔וּר וְכֹ֖ל רֶ֣כֶב מִצְרָ֑יִם וְשָׁלִשִׁ֖ם עַל־כֻּלּֽוֹ׃
Kumuha siya ng anim na raang piling karwahe, at ng lahat ng karwahe ng Egipto, na may mga pinuno sa bawat isa sa kanila.
Sha'arei Orah
Now, the matter of war is as follows: Know, that when HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, wants to uproot a nation or humble it, He does not uproot that nation until He first topples its ministering angel. This is as our sages, of blessed memory, stated,52Midrash Shir HaShirim Rabba 8:13 “The Holy One, blessed is He, does not topple a nation until He first topples its ministering angel, as it states,53Isaiah 24:21 ‘And it shall be that on that day HaShem-יהו"ה will deal with the hosts of the heavens in the heavens and with the kings of the earth on the earth.’” Know and believe that when Pharaoh pursued the children of Israel at the sea, it states,54Exodus 14:7 “He took six hundred elite chariots and all the chariots of Egypt.” This is because this battle was fought both above and below, and the greater battle took place in the heavens.
