Product Description

This is the detective story of the decade. It reveals the precise locations of Mount Sinai, the Red Sea crossing and the route of the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt 3,000 years ago. Colin Humphreys, a distinguished British scientist, uses physics, astronomy, biology, and other scientific resources to show that the mysteries and miracles of the Exodus have scientific explanations, and that these explanations then allow us to pinpoint the exact nature and time of these miracles. Humphreys is a brilliant scientist who has done cutting-edge research in many fields. His scientific explanations of events in the Bible have been published in scientific and biblical journals, and his work has been featured on TV, radio, and major newspapers.

Publisher's Description

The Real Story of the Exodus

Colin Humphreys, a world-renowned Cambridge University scientist, reveals for the first time the concrete, scientific truth behind the Exodus miracles.

  • The Burning Bush: Caused by a volcanic vent that opened up under the bush.

  • Crossing the Red Sea: The water was pushed back by a very strong wind blowing all night. This is a known physical phenomenon called wind setdown. The details given in the Bible mean we can pinpoint where the Red Sea crossing occurred.

  • Drowning Pharaoh's Army: When the very strong wind suddenly stopped blowing, the water rushed back in the form of a rapidly returning "bore" wave, sweeping Pharaoh's army into the sea.

  • Mount Sinai: The real Mount Sinai is in present-day Saudi Arabia, not the Sinai Desert as is generally assumed.
