Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
The language and construction of this verse is poetical; it seems to be an extract from a song, and to describe, in the language of poetry, the same event which the preceding verse described in that of prose.

With ease - Or "rest" Num 10:33; Psa 95:11. The expression is very obscure. The margin takes it as the name of a place.
