====The Location Where Moses and the Israelites Crossed the Red Sea ([[Exodus 14:13-31]])====

* There is some degree of difficulty in identifying the modern-day areas that correspond to the areas described in the Bible.

*It is probable that the Israelites crossed the Red Sea at its northern end (based on attempts to identify the locations mentioned in the Biblical account).

*Today, the probable point of crossing is ''marshy'' or ''dry land''; but it was not so in the past. Because of movements in the earth itself, the northern part of the Red Sea has risen, and the sea has receded many miles.

*The Old Testament name is probably best translated "Sea of Reeds" - which would point to this northern area of the Red Sea (today marshy or dry). The New Testament name is "Red Sea" (''not'' "Sea of Reeds"), which would ''not'' designate the specific point of crossing. (Also, "Sea of Reeds" would ''not'' have been a good choice of words, if by the New Testament era, the point of crossing had become relatively shallow!)

: (When Israel returns to their land, a prophecy for the future): Isa 11:15 - Yahweh will utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea <nowiki>[= Red Sea]</nowiki>; and with his scorching wind he will wave his hand over the River <nowiki>[= Euphrates River]</nowiki>, and will split it into seven streams, and cause men to march over in sandals.

'''[[Exodus 14:13-31]]'''
:The account of the first crossing of the Red Sea. (The second crossing hasn't yet occurred, but is mentioned in [[Isaiah 11:1-16]].)
