One good example: Exodus. There is not a shred of evidence, neither physical or written (outside of the bible), to confirm that that story is based on reality - something that actually took place. Check for yourselves. However, FFS, don't look at Christian or Jewish religious sources ONLY.
Quoting: kangablue Where does the Bible say the crossing too place? I'll even help you.
Ex:14:2:
Speak unto the children of Israel,
that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth,
between Migdol and the sea,
over against Baal-zephon:
before it shall ye encamp by the sea.

See the narrow part between the Great Bitten Lake and the Little Bittern Lake? Now add a strong east wind that blows all night, that is where they crossed. That new or old news for you?
Ex:14:21:
And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea;
and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night,
and made the sea dry land,
and the waters were divided.
