Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Psalms 114:6
Ye mountains, [that] ye skipped like rams; [and] ye little hills, like lambs?
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams,…. Not for joy, but fear; what caused these trembling motions, these violent agitations, and quakings, and movings to and fro like the skipping of rams?
And ye little hills, like lambs? what was it that disturbed you, and put you into a panic, that you skipped like frightened lambs? These questions are put, by a beautiful and poetical figure, to inanimate creatures; the Red sea, the river of Jordan, the mountains of Sinai and Horeb, and the hills about them; to which an answer is turned in the next verse.

Psa 114:6 Ye mountains, [that] ye skipped like rams; [and] ye little hills, like lambs?
Ver. 6. Ye mountains, that ye skipped, &c. ] These two verses teach us, saith one, that we may many times ask questions; and yet neither doubt of the matter nor be ignorant in them.
