TRY THIS
If you want to make your own parting Red Sea, find a clean, clear twenty-ounce plastic soda bottle with a lid. Remove the label. While standing over a sink, pour 1 cup of oil and 1 cup of red colored water into the bottle. Then, screw the lid back on and make sure it's tight. Now, tip your bottle to see what happens. Store your Red Sea in a place where the oil can't spill.
The Lord provides food for the hungry children of Israel. — Eus 16:4–17:5
