OVERVIEW: In 1446 BC, the 750 km trip from Goshen (Tel Dab’a) to Mt. Sinai took a total of took 47 days. After travelling 490 KM from Goshen they made the 19 km crossing of the Red Sea at the Straits of Tiran on day 25 then took 22 days to travel 260 km from the Red Sea Crossing to Mt. Sinai. Travel was easy for the 3 million Hebrews because there was a 20 km wide and flat coastal plain that hugged the eastern shore of the Gulf of Suez from Goshen to the Strait of Tiran. After they crossed the Red Sea, this “highway” continued to the wilderness of Sin. The only portion of the trip that was difficult was between the Wilderness of Sin through Dophkah to Alush. It is amazing that scripture notes that only during this portion of the journey, they “travelled in stages” (Ex 17:1) because the terrain was narrow and difficult. Day 9 after leaving Goshen they arrived at Succoth. Day 15 they pass the Migdol stationed above the final Red Sea crossing point and on day 16 they reached the dead-end at Etham. God orders them to backtrack to the final Red Sea crossing camp beside the Migdol where God used Israel to bait Pharaoh to attack. It would take 5 hours for passenger pigeon to fly from the Egyptian watchtower (Migdol) back to Egypt with the message Israel was trapped and hopeless. For 8 days Israel camped at the Red Sea crossing point (days 17-24) while Pharaoh's army pursued Israel with 600 choice horse-drawn chariots (Exodus 14:6-9) travelling from Egypt to where the pillar of fire stopped them about 20 km short of the Israel camp on the eastern shore of the Gulf of Suez. On day 17 Pharaoh's army easily traveled from Goshen to the Red Sea crossing in 8 days (days 17-24), at a rate of 60 km/day with horse-drawn chariots and arrived on day 24. After crossing the Red Sea at the Straits of Tiran via the natural underwater land bridge on day 25, Israel travelled 3 days (day 25-27) in the Wilderness of Shur and the land of Midian, then travelled 3 more days (day 28-30) and arrived at the second Red Sea camp. Exactly 31 days after leaving Goshen they enter the Wilderness of Sin (Nisan 15 - Iyar 15: Ex 16:1). In the Wilderness of sin Israel camped 8 days (day 31-39) in order to learn about Manna and the Sabbath day. Leaving the Wilderness of Sin, Israel travelling in small groups (stages) for one day arriving at Dophkah on day 40, then a second day arriving at Alush on day 41. Israel left Alush and entered a large flat plain east of Mt. Sinai where they spend three days (day 42-44) fighting the Amalekites at Rephidim where Moses brought water from the “split rock”. On day 45 they rested on the Sabbath in Rephedim. They travelled from Rephidim to arrive at the Wilderness of Sinai on day 47. On day 48, Moses ascends Mt. Sinai and returns to get the people to take an oath to obey the laws of YHWH soon to be revealed (Ex 19:3-6). On day 51 (Friday, Silvan 8), God tells Israel to prepare for three days (Friday – Sunday) at the end of which God will ascend Mt. Sinai. (Ex 19:10-11). On Pentecost Sunday (Silvan 10), day 53 from leaving Egypt, Mt. Sinai explodes (Heb 12:18) when God gives the law to Moses over a period of 40 days. Israel spent 11 months and 5 days (Num 10:11) camped in the Wilderness of Sinai while Moses received the law and Israel built the Tabernacle tent. The journey from Mt. Sinai through Ezion Geber (Numbers 33:35-36) to Kadesh Barnea, was 20 stops over a period of about 11 months. Israel spends 38 years camped at Kadesh Barnea located at modern Petra. Aaron died on the 1st day of the 5th month of the 40th year of the wilderness wandering (summer 1407 BC). Shortly after mourning Aaron for 30 days, the people left Mount Hor which was beside Petra (Kadesh) and moved south to the Red Sea (“Yam Suph”- Deut 1:40) and pass a second time through Ezion Geber (Deut 2:8). Then they went east to avoid the Edomites living in the mountains and began moving north. Before they crossed the Wadi Zered, Israel rebels again and God sends poisonous snakes to kill the people. Moses sets up a pole with a snake to heal them. They cross the Wadi Zered at the south end of the Salt sea and Moses speaks the words of the book of Deuteronomy at Iye-abarim. The conquest begins and Israel passes directly through Dibon-gad and begins the defeat of the Transjordan nations. While camped at Shittim (Tel Hammam) Israel mourned Moses for 30 days. In 1406 BC Israel crossed the Jordan on the 10th day of the 1st month of the 41st year (spring, 1406 BC), four days before the 41st Passover, which was exactly 40 years to the day they left Goshen. They started counting sabbatical years and Jubilees after crossing the Jordan. (Num 33:38; 20:28; Deut 34:8; Josh 4:19; 5:10). Israel camps at Gilgal then defeats Jericho and Ai. They travel to Shechem and built Joshua’s Altar. The Ark of the Covenant was positioned in the valley between Mt Gerizim and Mt. Ebal with half the tribes on each of the two mountain sides. The echo-ritual “curses and blessings ceremony” of Deut 27-28 were spoken across the valley to each of the six tribes. From 1406-1400 BC Israel defeated first the northern Amorite Pentapolis then the southern Amorite Pentapolis. They were unable to defeat the Philistine Pentapolis (Ex 13:17-18; Deut 2:23; Josh 11:22; 13:2-3; Judges 1:18-19; 3:1-3) until the time of David which restricted Israel’s possession of the promised land to the central hill country until 1003 BC. After 6 years of war, on the first Sabbatical year of 1399 BC, Israel moves the tabernacle from Gilgal to Shiloh where it will serve as Israel’s first capital city for 305 years until the Philistines burn the city in 1094 BC.
