Actually, it was the parting of the Red Sea (in the Old Testament) that helped the Israelites get to the Promised Land. The question might refer to Jesus calming the water (in the New Testament).
He was told by God to bathe in the Jordan River.
According to the Bible, God parted the waters two times. The first instance was when God parted the Red Sea to allow the Israelites to escape from the pursuing Egyptian army. The second time was when God parted the Jordan River for the Israelites to cross into the promised land.
A:Three Old Testament characters: Moses (the Red Sea), Joshua (Jordan River) and Elijah (Jordan River).A:God through Moses.Jewish answer:The Torah states that God parted the Sea of Reeds (Exodus 14:21). Moses merely gave a visible sign that God was about to part the sea. This is why God, not Moses, is praised in the song that the Israelites sang after the parting of the sea (Exodus ch.15).
The river Jordan.
God stated that the Jordan river would be Israel's eastern border (Numbers ch.34).
Joshua and the Israelites crossed the Jordan River to enter Canaan. God miraculously stopped the river's flow to allow them to pass safely.

1) At the Sea of Reeds (Exodus ch.14). 2) The Jordan river (Joshua ch.3-4). 3) See also 2 Kings 2:8.
That was its location as stated by God: the Jordan would be Israel's eastern border (Numbers ch.34).
The keyword "over Jordan" in the biblical story of the Israelites crossing the Jordan River into the Promised Land signifies a significant moment of transition and fulfillment of God's promise to the Israelites. It represents the crossing from a period of wandering in the wilderness to entering the land promised to them by God, marking a new chapter in their journey and relationship with God.

The Jordan River is significant in Christianity as the place where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist. It symbolizes purification and spiritual renewal for Christians. In Judaism, the Jordan River holds significance as the place where the Israelites crossed into the Promised Land, marking a new beginning and their covenant with God.
