Moses didn't part the Red Sea. God did. Moses obeyed what God told him to do, and God did the heavy lifting. And He commanded the wind to do blow. Shapiro is partially right.
Exodus 14:21 NASB95 — Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night and turned the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided.
If you're talking about alleged events with people who don't share your beliefs, it helps to find common ground without negating what you hold to be true. Rogan was promoting his belief that the Bible isn't a standard for human behavior (to justify his leftist talking points and preferences, drugs, homosexuality, etc). Ben states he believes in the divine inspiration of scripture, but events in it and certain moral questions can also be explained via natural causes.
It was an easterly wind, and Ben accepts as much bc it is so written (he never said it was "just" anything). He clearly doesnt appreciate naturalistic reading into the text, despite his siding with Maimonidean thought on the question. Rogan doesn't have to immediately accept that God commands the winds in his pursuit of knowledge of whether or not the event even happened.

It was also the way Ben said it to Joe,
As if it was simply nature without God.

Ohhh, this makes a lot of sense. Having a conversation with Joe who has that belief [or lack of] would change the words being used.
