Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
The question itself expresses more than a bare assertion could: it marks both astonishment and unshakable certainty. Here Moses contrasts the one true God with the idols of the Gentiles, showing that although angels possess excellence, God's holiness, that glory which separates Him from all His creatures, exalts Him infinitely above them and degrades every false deity the world has invented.
AI summary
Those who held their peace while deliverance was working must not hold it when the work is done. Singing psalms is the language of holy joy as prayer is of holy desire. Strike while the mercy is fresh; when the heart is most affected, praise returns quickest to God, before time and our own deceitfulness dull the impression.

Commenting on Exodus 15:1-21
No one among the mighty angels, the princes, the judges, or any order of earthly power can compare to Him in the works of His hands or the greatness of His power. His holiness is perfectly displayed in Him, both divine nature and human, and shines through all His works, especially the redemption of His people from sin and the judgment of His enemies. None is holy as the Lord.
