A:

Three Old Testament characters: Moses (the Red Sea), Joshua (Jordan River) and Elijah (Jordan River).

A:

God through Moses.

Jewish answer:

The Torah states that God parted the Sea of Reeds (Exodus 14:21). Moses merely gave a visible sign that God was about to part the sea. This is why God, not Moses, is praised in the song that the Israelites sang after the parting of the sea (Exodus ch.15).

How many times was the water parted in the Bible?

Four times. Once, when Moses parted it at the Red Sea, to cross from Egypt into the wilderness; and a second time, when Joshua parted it to cross from the wilderness into the promised land; a third time when Elijah rolled up his cloak and parted the Jordan river before ascending into heaven in a chariot of fire; and, a fourth time after Elisha watched Elijah go to heaven, turned around and re-crossed the river Jordan. The writers of the bible seem to consistently use authority over water as an indication of divine authority. The spirit of God is seen hovering over the waters before creating the world. In Job god is said to be able to tread across the waves, and the writers of the new testament seemed to allude to this in the story of Jesus also walking across the waves. Water is most often seen as a symbol of judgment and death in order to cleanse, for instance as the world is flooded in judgment and Noah is seen avoiding God's judgment by riding on top of the waters.

Is Moody Bible Institute a King James only school?

No, it's interdenominational so that could cause a conflict. When I graduated from Moody Bible Institute in the late 60s the King James Bible was used in all Bible study and theology classes and all Bible memory verses were to be from the King James Bible. However, I think today that they have gone to a modern Bible which is supposed to be "better", but in reality waters down God's Word to make it more pleasing to all people. I wish they would have stuck with the King James Bible.
