And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the land of Egypt.

All Commentaries on Exodus 10:19 Go To Exodus 10

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849

West. Hebrew sea, (Mediterranean) to the north and west of Egypt. Red sea. Hebrew, "of suph "or green herbs, which abound there. It has also a reddish appearance in some places, from the coral branches of a saffron colour. It probably was called red from Edom, or Erythros, the son of Isaac. (Calmet) God drowned the locusts in this sea, by means of the wind, which often proves the destruction of those animals. (Pliny, Natural History xi. 29.)
