1. "Moses answered, 'What if they do not believe me or listen to me and say, ‘The Lord did not appear to you’? [...] Then the Lord said, 'If they do not believe you or pay attention to the first sign, they may believe the second. But if they do not believe these two signs or listen to you, take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground. The water you take from the river will become blood on the ground.” (Exodus 3:1-8).
2. "By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned" (Hebrews 11:29)

That's strange. I must of missed the part where I got that backwards lol. God gave evidence to Israel that he was real before they had to exercise faith in him at the Red Sea? That can't be right.
And yet as soon as Moses was away up a mountain they started worshipping other gods (Golden calf anyone) making the "evidence" rather poor doesn't it.
If they had had the proof as you say then there is no way they'd have acted the way they did.
None of the story stands up to any scrutiny does it.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
