If you are referring to the nation of Israel in the Exodus then two. The first was the Red Sea on the way out of Egypt and the second was the Jordan River (then in flood) when they entered the promised land of Canaan. Of course, to be strict, it would be more correct that they went 'through' the water on dry land as the accounts reveal. They thus did not cross them as bodies of water are normally crossed by boat or bridge or ferry.

If you are referring to Jacob, later named Israel, he may have crossed a number in his travels but the only one recorded is when he crossed the Jabbok, although it also mentions a Ford and so this may also not have involved crossing actual water. (See Genesis 32:22-23)

In The Bible, Israel crossed two bodies of water. The first was the Red Sea during the exodus from Egypt, and the second was the Jordan River when they entered the Promised Land.
