I don’t disagree with you that we need to take precautions. The scriptures are consistent with that, especially the references to the plague of leprosy, etc...

But the account you have referenced doesn’t match what the God of heaven wrote about the parting of the Red sea.

Who are you going to believe...the one who parted the Red sea Himself, or the ones He created, but who wrote about it long after?

It took quite a while for the waters to dry up, and it didn’t happen because someone jumped in: read the truth and learn -

Exodus 14
16 But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
17 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
19 And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:
20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.
21 ¶ And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

There is silence in the scriptures about the parting of the “reed sea”, so I am *highly* skeptical. Best not to add to the word of God...

Proverbs 30
6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
