The Bible tells us that Mt. Sinai is in Arabia. Well, the Mt. Sinai that is on most maps is in the Sinai desert, not
Arabia. You don’t get into Arabia until you cross the Gulf of Aqaba.
So the
real Mt. Sinai must be in Arabia. (Galatians
4:25)
The first thing you notice when looking at the pictures is the blackened peak on top. What would make that peak black? There is no vegetation. Nothing there to burn. And look at how even it is.
Maybe it was caused by the cloud of fire that God came down in. The Bible says that the mount was all a smoke.
