The compendium of Yedidiah Solomon Norzi (Matua, Italy, 1560-1626)
A seemingly midrashic interpretation of the the verb נערמו neʿermu in the Song of the Sea finds support in a variant text of Deuteronomy 11:4, preserved both in the Kennicott Bible and the medieval commentator Ḥizquni, that imagines the Reed Sea in purposive pursuit of the Egyptians.[1]
