So Pharaoh prepared his chariots and his army, with 600 specially selected chariots and all the Egyptian chariots, each of which was the captain of chariots. The Egyptians pursued them, and all Pharaoh's horses, chariots, horsemen and army overtook them near the place where they camped opposite Baal-zephon at Pihahiroth.
When the Hebrews saw a piece of dust approaching, they were very alarmed to know that the Egyptian army was catching up. They face the sea of Wang Yang, there is no road ahead, and there are pursuers behind them. I don't know what to do. So the Israelites turned to Moses and complained that he had taken them out of Egypt. God assured them again that they didn't need to be afraid or defend themselves. God promised to fight this battle for them and give them victory.
The Lord separated the waters of the Red Sea (also known as the Reed Sea by some scholars) with a strong east wind, so that the Israelites could cross the dry land and reach the other side of the sea. The Egyptians caught up from behind and followed the Israelis on the dry seabed, but before they reached the other shore, the seawater had combined, Egyptian soldiers and horses were drowned in the sea, and the Israelis reached the other shore safely.
Miriam, the sister of Moses (Miriam was called the prophetess for the first time here), led the Israelites to celebrate God's salvation with poems, and then continued their journey. The subsequent narrative describes the struggle of the Israeli people in the desert-lack of food and water, internal discord, blaming Moses, fighting the enemy and so on. In these experiences, Moses became their united strength and great spiritual leader.

Moses (Hebrew:) was the national leader of the Jews in the 3rd century BC/KLOC-0. Historians regard him as the founder of Judaism. He is regarded as an extremely important prophet in Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Baha 'i. According to the heritage of Israel, Moses wrote Pentecost.
According to Exodus, Moses was ordered by the Lord to lead the enslaved Hebrews to escape from ancient Egypt and go to the rich land: Canaan. After more than 40 years of trekking, he died when he was about to reach his destination.
Under the leadership of Moses, the Hebrews got rid of the miserable life of slaves, learned to observe the Ten Commandments, and became the first nation in history to worship monotheism.
