2017年10月18日 · In early October Phil Roberts and I went to Tabuk for the weekend to look at Jabal al-Lawz. This is a mountain located in northwest Saudi Arabia, near the Jordan border, above the Gulf of Aqaba at 2580 metres above sea level. It is Saudi Arabia’s second highest mountain after Jebal Soudah near Abha in the southwest of the Kingdom.

Jabal al-Lawz (Arabic: جَبَل ٱللَّوْز) is a mountain located in northwest Saudi Arabia, near the Jordanian border, above the Gulf of Aqaba at 2,580 metres (8,460 feet) above sea level. The name means 'mountain of almonds'. [2]

2024年12月20日 · What would you expect to find at the REAL Mount Sinai? Could its true location be in Saudi Arabia rather than the traditional site in the Sinai Peninsula? Recent discoveries have reignited interest in Jabal al-Lawz as a possible candidate for the biblical Mount Sinai, and this week, you’ll have the chance to examine the evidence for yourself!

2024年6月12日 · Proponents of the Jabal al-Lawz theory bring to the table an immediately attractive visual spread: burned mountaintop, split rock and carvings of cattle-worship. But how watertight is their case? Is it enough to overthrow the traditional site of Mount Sinai in the southern Sinai Peninsula?

2019年10月4日 · The Real Mount Sinai (Jebel al Lawz) Ancient history conceals giants of mystery. A symphony of archaeology, anthropology, epigraphy, and linguistics must harmonize to unveil truth. Forgotten history lays dormant – buried in sand, engraved on walls, and scripted on fragments of aging parchment.

2023年7月6日 · Hence, the focus falls on Jabal al-Lawz (Figure 5), the tallest peak in the NW Saudi Arabia at 8465 feet. The Apostle Paul seems to confirm this location in Galatians 4:25-26 using wordplay based on geographic reality: “…mount Sinai in Arabia…answereth [ sustoicheo ] to Jerusalem…which is above [ ano ]…”

Jebel al-Lawz is the highest of the mountain in Midian—8,465 feet—higher than any mountain in the Sinai Peninsula; but biblical Mt. Sinai need not be the highest mountain. There is some reason to search for it in southern Edom, which was Midianite terrain before the expansion of the Edomites south” (Shanks 1992: 32 ).

2024年11月8日 · Proponents of this theory argue that the geographical and archaeological features of Jebel al-Lawz better match the biblical account. They point to evidence of ancient encampments, petroglyphs, and altars that may correspond to the Israelites’ presence.

As one reaches the higher elevations of Jabal al Lawz, the ground turns black, dark like obsidian; the rocks look almost like coal. (Yet when they're broken, they were actually granite.) They were not volcanic; they appeared as if scorched from above (Exodus 19:18). They even found an unusually large crevice in which a man could hide (Exodus 33 ...

If Mt. Sinai is at Jebel al-Lawz, then there is no motive for the Amalekites to travel all the way down to the site to attack the Israelites. If the Israelites were going to the Land of Canaan, they could go up the Transjordanian Highway and avoid Kadesh Barnea and the Negev all together.
