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!:)

How are Joshua leading the Israelites across the Jordan River and Moses leading them across the Red Sea the same?
Some of the key biblical events around Moses had quite close parallels in the story of Joshua. In the Exodus story, Joshua accompanied Moses onto the mountain, and was the only person other than Moses who could enter the tabernacle. In the Book of Exodus, Moses held out his rod and parted the Red Sea. The importance of the priests was given greater emphasis in the Book of Joshua, and as soon as their feet touched the waters of the Jordan, the waters stopped flowing and the people could cross. In the first case, parting the water allowed the Israelites to cross over and defeat the Egyptians who were pursuing them; in the second case, parting the water allowed the Israelites to cross over and defeat the Canaanites who were before them.
Who separated the red sea god or Moses?
Moses The Crossing of the Red Sea forms an episode in the biblical narrative of The Exodus. It tells of the escape of the Israelites, led by Moses, from the pursuing Egyptians, as recounted in the Book of Exodus. Moses holds out his staff and God parts the waters of the Yam Suph. The Israelites walk through on the dry ground and cross the sea, followed by the Egyptian army. Once the Israelites have safely crossed Moses lifts his arms again, the sea closes, and the Egyptians are drowned.
