“But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.”
But as for you, turn, and journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea' -- the command reverses direction. Instead of north into Canaan, Israel must turn south into the wilderness. The Red Sea path was the way of the exodus; now it becomes the way of retreat. The wilderness that Israel feared becomes the place of its wandering.
