Answer 5

It's a joke from the movie "Monty Pythons Life of Brian"

Brian, who is Jewish, is told by his mother that his father was really a Roman centurion, making him Roman.

He protests that he is Jewish, saying "I'm a heeb, a hook-nose, I'm kosher, I'm a red sea pedestrian and proud of it"

Red sea pedestrian in this case means Jewish - as in, crossed the Red sea when Moses parted the waves...
