Chidush for Moshe after Az Yashir

i had a chidush about moshe after az yashir... how moshe's name was given to
him partly because he drew the people into and out of the kriyat yam suf
(part of bnei yisrael's spiritual journey - the amud anan and ha'esh were
busy 'dealing' with the egyptians, and they had to go for themselves into
and out of the yam suf) and then they set out on the journey to har sinai on
their own without the amud anan or amud ha'esh (pasuk after az yashir says:
"va'isa moshe").

love
pesach
