Exegesis
Finally, the dual expressions miyminam {מִֽימִינָ֖ם | mî-yim-min-nām} “from their right” and u-mismolam {וּמִשְּׂמֹאלָֽם | u-miś-mō-ʾā-lām} “and from their left” frame the event spatially, conveying total enclosure by the divided sea.
In context — Exodus 14:29
But the Israelites walked on dry land in the middle of the sea, and the waters were for them a wall from their right side and from their left.
