Episode 162: Exodus - New Information, (19 of 26)
September 23, 2013 07:00 - 4 minutes - 1.95 MBFor more information and sources you could check out http://akinforthetruth.net. As we have seen the Nuweiba Peninsula geologically, geographically and hydrologically matches conditions as described in Exodus. We have the common travel routes across Sinai Peninsula, sharply defined by impassable, craggy rock outcroppings and mountains, through which eroded stormwater beds, called wadis, snake. We also note that they open up to a large, wide beachhead, large enough to facilitate the en...
Episode 161: Exodus - New Information, (18 of 26)
September 21, 2013 07:00 - 2 minutes - 1.13 MBAt this point in our ongoing discussion we find the Israelites hemmed in by the mountains on the west, rough terrain on the north and south, and the Gulf of Aqaba Red Sea extension on the east, encamped on the vast Nuweiba beachhead, with no where to go, except to return via the wadi from which they came. So now we look at Exodus 14:9, where it is recorded “Then the Egyptians chased after them with all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen and his army, and they overtook them c...
Episode 160: Exodus - New Information, (17 of 26)
September 19, 2013 07:00 - 6 minutes - 2.78 MBA well known trade route that travels from northern Egypt southward along the Suez east coastline, then, just as Moses had when fleeing to Midian 40 years earlier, sharply turning northeastward through the mountains and onto the desert plains, a flat and compacted route well suited for travel as it skirted along north of the Sinai’s rugged mountain ranges, is the only route that remains. It is estimated that, since Scripture states that the Israelites traveled towards the city day and nig...
Episode 159: Exodus - New Information, (16 of 26)
September 17, 2013 07:00 - 3 minutes - 1.67 MBFor more information and sources you could check out http://akinforthetruth.net. Last time we concluded that the Gulf of Aqaba, not that of the Suez, for historical and archaeological and Biblical reasons, is the better candidate for the miraculous Red Sea crossing recorded in the book of Exodus. So, if the Gulf of Aqaba is that referred to by Scripture, where along its Eastern shore would we be able to mark Israel’s crossing? Two possibilities can be located. The first is found near ...
Episode 158: Exodus - New Information, (15 of 26)
September 15, 2013 07:00 - 2 minutes - 1.32 MBFor more information and sources you could check out http://akinforthetruth.net. Yam Suph is mentioned 23 times in the Old Testament, traditionally understood to refer to the salt water inlet located between Africa and the Arabian peninsula, known in English as the . More recently, alternate understandings of the term have been proposed for those passages where it refers to the Israelite as told in Exodus 13-15. These proposals would mean that Yam Suph is better translated in these passa...
Episode 157: Exodus - New Information, (14 of 26)
September 13, 2013 07:00 - 5 minutes - 4.84 MBFor more information and sources you could check out http://akinforthetruth.net. In our effort to trace the Exodus, we can produce an outline of what we have learned so far as follows: 1) As stated in Galatians 4:25, and confirmed by ancient historians and modern archaeology, Mt. Sinai, or Mt. Horab, is in Arabia, near the ancient, recently discovered city of Midian, not near the southern Sinai Peninsula of Christian lore; 2) the Biblically asserted times and location of Joseph and the Hebr...
Episode 156: Exodus - New Information, (13 of 26)
September 11, 2013 07:00 - 5 minutes - 5.19 MBNow, shortly after Josephus, the Greek geographer Ptolemy identified Madian as located in the Arabian Peninsula. 1900 years later, archaeologists excavated this city, that, according to ancient records, had once stood near Mt. Sinai. The ruins of Madian lie just outside the present existing town of El Bod, located near Saudi Arabia’s northwest coast. Now 15 miles east of El Bod is a mountain of interest, perhaps the best candidate as the true Mt. Sinai. It is, as cited by Josephus, the ta...
Episode 155: Exodus - New Information, (12 of 26)
September 09, 2013 07:00 - 4 minutes - 4.38 MBIn our recent discussions we have brought forth the idea that Midian, not Southern Sinai Peninsula, is the real location of Mt. Sinai. Now, let’s take a closer look at some evidences of this idea. Long before Christian tradition placed Mt. Sinai in the Sinai Peninsula, some 750 years earlier, in about 250 BC, the translators of the Septuagint, those 70 or so scholars in Alexandria, assumed in their translation of the Exodus account, merely as a matter of fact, that Mt. Sinai is in Arabia. ...
Episode 154: Exodus - New Information, (11 of 26)
September 05, 2013 07:00 - 6 minutes - 5.65 MBWe mentioned in the last chapter that it was when Moses was in Midian that he encountered God at Mt. Horeb (Mt. Sinai). So, according to the Bible, we should be looking there, not all the way down at the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula. As it can be seen on most ancient maps, and as is well attested historically by such as Philo, Josephus and others, the land of Midian was in Arabia, with, along its west border, the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea). This is where Moses first settled after fleei...
