Why did Israel cross the Red Sea?

Getting back to the question you raised in the title of this thread, as is written, Israel crossed the Red Sea to escape the Egyptians, and simultaneously for God to demonstrate His power as El Elyon, God Most High. He demonstrated what was "possible" for Him, as God Most High, and what would've been impossible otherwise.

It was a miracle.

He miraculously rescued His people from the hands of the Egyptians by parting the Red Sea, enabling the Israelites to cross over.

The conclusion i come to is that what you describe is a tradition which i fail to see how it relates to Israelites crossing the Red Sea.

I was asking for clarification.

You can say G-d started the tradition when they crossed the Red Sea before they went to a Mount Sinai where God performed a Jewish wedding ceremony.

Or you could just accept what the bible states, rather than trying to add beliefs to it

Anyway, no water touched them when they went through the sea, so how could they have had a baptism to be purged of their sin?

have you ever read 1st Corinthians chapter 10 verse 2

Please reference where it is written in His Word that God's intent in parting the Red Sea was to start a tradition?

In addition, the only ones getting "wet" from the Red Sea, is Pharaoh's army, that drowned.

Read 1st Corinthians chapter 10 verse two it clearly states that Israel was baptized in going through the Red Sea.

Read it. Also read the entire chapter.

It's speaking of the obedience of the Israelites.

It says they were baptised into Moses, it doesn't say they were purged of their sin.
Two different things.
They followed Moses, they were with him. In this sense they were baptised into him. Being baptised into Moses is not forgiveness of sin, for Moses could not forgive them their sin!

 

[JDMiowa]

The water is a type/anti-type of wine and a type/anti-type of the blood of offerings, that was the type/anti-type of Christ blood, that washes the sins from Israel. We can be grafted into Israel by faith and be cleaned by G_d's blood also, that was provided by Jesus.

How the waters of the Red Sea was a symbol of the same waters Jesus used to turn water into wine, which is a symbol of His blood that truly washes away our sins. 1 Corinthians 10:2
