As the Jewish People left Egypt and headed toward the promised land of Canaan they arrived at the Red Sea. Meanwhile, Pharaoh's heart hardened again and he gathered his armies to pursue the Jewish People. As the Egyptian army approached Moses raised his staff and God parted the waters of the Red Sea allowing the Jewish People to cross safely.

Pharaoh sent his army after the Jewish People but after the last of the Jewish People made it across the Red See the waters closed up on the Egyptian army and drowned them.
