  It is supposed that an earthquake is here intended; the rising
  and falling of the ground, with a wave-like motion, and its
  leaving its proper place and bounds, in consequence of an
  earthquake, being justly and beautifully compared to the
  swelling, overflowing, and subsiding of the Nile.

  tabernacles, and the other some time before the passover.
