Coincidence - God's penname when He want to remain anonimous.
In the Exodus, the red sea could have parted naturally, i.e. caused by strong wind or perhaps a tsuanmi arising from an earthquake and volcanic eruption somewhere nearby.
The story could be coloured with the writers adds-on and yet this can be a real thing.
Here's a link which models how the red sea could have parted naturally:
red sea parting
I have come accross this type of reasoning, please read your bible. Elisha parted the river anytime he like by touching the water with his mantle (cloak). The description given when the ark of the covenant was taken accross the Jordan is water which piled up creating a wall on either side. They piled stones there as a memorial. God also created the universe by the way and caused bread to fall out of the sky in the form of mana to feed those of the exodus. When Jesus was baptised in the Jordan he too was baptised in that place of the crossing of the arc. I have heard these so called scentific arguments, the walls of Jherico, the Exodus plauges etc.. Even Christians reasoning that evoloution was maybe Gods plan. I encourage you to look at all the biblical evidence of devine interventions before forming an opinion which is worldly. There are also tribes of muslim men who live by the red sea who ferry people accross and have done for generations. They live there and give accurate accounts from there fathers fathers etcc..who verify the account. Keep searching God Bless
