Best Answer

(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.
