The tumultuous, salty waves of the vast and endless waters may symbolize the transgressions in which the unrighteous are destined to perish due to the wickedness of their earthly existence, as well as the chasm of their impending ruin. At the Final Judgment, they will be cast into Gehenna alongside the devil. It is important to note that when the Tabernacle was established on Mount Sinai, the Red Sea lay to its west, and when it was transported to Shiloh by Joshua, the Mediterranean Sea was positioned in the same direction.
