Waters that had big part in Bible? (3,3)

Ross

red sea

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'part in bible?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both natural objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'waters that had big' is the wordplay.
'waters' becomes 'Reds' (Red is an example).
'that had big' becomes 'ea' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'reds'+'ea'='RED SEA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for red sea that I've seen before include "It divided for Moses" , "It's linked to the Mediterranean by the Suez Canal" , "Water bordering Egypt" , "It parted for Moses and his followers" , "What the Suez canal links with the Mediterranean" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
