Deeds of wonder in the land of Ham, awesome acts by the Red Sea. The reiteration of Egypt's miracles and the Red Sea crossing emphasizes that these experiences ought to have created permanent faith.

Repetition itself becomes a rhetorical strategy, hammering home the tragedy of Israel's forgetting.
