How was Hashem Go'er b'Yam?

What are "Tehomos ba'Midbar"?

1.

Rashi: It is Yam Suf, which is in the Midbar - "Sagar Aleihem ha'Midbar" (Shemos 14:13), "Derech Sheloshes Yamim

Why didn't Rashi simply cite "Derech ha'Midbar Yam Suf" (Shemos 13:18) or "va'Ya'avru b'Soch ha'Yam ha'Midbarah" (Bamidbar 33:8)? Perhaps he did, and scribes erred. The continuation of the latter verse is "[va'Yelchu] Derech Sheloshes Yamim b'Midbar Esam." Texts in which Rashi cites Bamidbar 10:3 are overtly wrong. (PF)

Rashi (114:2, from Pirkei d'R. Eliezer 42, Shocher Tov 76:2): Nachshon jumped to descend into the sea. (Perhaps Hashem lifted the floor after he jumped. - PF)
