Many of us can recall songs which define an era - protest songs, or songs which create a musical movement, or those that represent special events in history. Exodus 15 is an ancient and exuberant song which celebrates God's climatic victory over Pharaoh and which resonates throughout the history of Judaism. We need to dig deeper behind this song to understand whose voice it actually is and how it came to us, in order to appreciate the deeper richness of its meaning. The song contains some disturbing and uncomfortable imagery for 21st Century readers, but a look behind the scenes can reveal some valuable insights about voices and power, retributive justice and divine doppelgängers!
