The Bible already told us!

I read an article yesterday that was titled the following,"Computers Explain How Moses Parted the Red Sea". Here is the first paragraph in the Fox News article: "Moses might not have parted the Red Sea, but a strong east wind that blew through the night could have pushed the waters back in the way described in biblical writings and the Koran, U.S. researchers reported on Tuesday." The article goes into detail about how wind could have parted the waters as long as it was it the right speed and the water was shallow enough. Here is what the Bible says,
"Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all the night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on the left." Exodus 14:21-22
Obviously it was God that parted the sea and not Moses. The above passage tells us that. It says that Moses stretched his hands out and God parted the sea by using a strong east wind. It amazes me that the world will look everywhere to try and explain something when the answer is plain and clear in the Bible. I don't have a problem with trying to determine how scientifically it could have happened but don't be surprised when we can't fully figure out how it happened. We can't limit God to our scientific understandings.
