Publisher's Synopsis
The last King of Babylon, Nabonidus, is the historical person behind the biblical characters of Abraham and Moses. The exodus was not from Egypt in the 13th Century BCE but from Babylonia in the 6th Century BCE. The route taken and the location of Sinai are recorded within the often overlooked etymology of biblical names and toponyms. Sinai is in Northwestern Arabia, in a little known oasis near the Red Sea. Egyptian/Osirian themes throughout. Intended for academic researchers, e.g., ancient Judaism, Near Eastern Studies, and biblical exegesis.
