According to the biblical narrative in the Book of Exodus, Pharaoh and his army were drowned in the Red Sea when Moses parted the waters to lead the Israelites to freedom. As the Israelites crossed, the waters returned, engulfing Pharaoh's forces. While this account is central to the story of the Exodus, there is no historical evidence to confirm this event. Thus, it remains a matter of religious belief and interpretation rather than established fact.

Why did Moses take the Israelites across the red sea?

Moses took the Israelites across the red sea because he was instructed by God to free the Israelites from slavery at Egypt where they were treated poorly. Of course the Pharoah there (who I think was his brother) wouldn't let them go so easily at first so God sent all sorts of nasty things to the Egyptian people 10 altogether): 1)The River Nile was turned to blood. 2)Frogs. 3)Gnats. 4)Flies 5)Egyptian animals died. 6)Boils. 7)Hail. 8)Locusts. 9)Darkness for 3 days. 10)The eldest son of every Egyptian family dead (now known as Passover). With all the horrible things the Israelites were spared. After number 10 the Pharoah was so upset as his own son had been killed that he said the Israelites could go. Later on the Pharoah changed his mind and sent soldiers to capture them. They caught up with them at the Red Sea. God created a pathway in the water for the Israelites to go through and they went through. When the soldiers and the Pharoah tried the water crashed back down on them drowning the Pharoah and the solders. Hope this helps and sorry if it is very long!:)


What happened to the sea when the Egyptians tried to cross it?

(Assuming you're talking about the time of the Jews) The sea swallowed them up. The Pharoah was left standing to see his army drowning in the sea. This is considered quite harsh, but don't forget that the Pharoah had been suppressing the Jews for years. Moses and God felt that they needed to stop him.
