Exegesis
This is followed by the vav-consecutive vayis'u {וַיִּשְׂאוּ֩ | vayisʾû} ‘and they lifted,’ linking the construct bnei Yisra'el {בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל | bənē-Yiśrāʾēl} ‘sons of Israel’ to the direct object et einehem {אֶת־עֵינֵיהֶ֜ם | ʾet ʿênê-hem} ‘their eyes.’
In context — Exodus 14:10
And Pharaoh drew near, and the sons of Israel lifted their eyes, and behold, Egypt was marching after them, and they were greatly afraid, and the sons of Israel cried out to the LORD .
