Patterns of Evidence: Journey to Mount Sinai II

In this sixth installment to the Patterns of Evidence series, investigative filmmaker Tim Mahoney concludes his 20 year search for the biblical Mount Sinai. The onsite footage in this film is remarkable, and it draws together interviews, pictures, and videos that Mahoney and his team have gathered in over two decades of research. The five previous documentaries have all wrestled hard with the biblical, archaeological, and epigraphical evidence and have argued strongly for the faithfulness of the Bible’s claims.

Evaluating the Six Proposed Sites

Journey to Mount Sinai I synthesized the biblical requirements for identifying the true Mount Sinai and then evaluated three of the six top proposals. This new film evaluates three more. The six sites include:

  • Traditional Mount Sinai at Jebel Musa (southcentral Sinai Peninsula)
  • Jabel Saniyah (southwestern Sinai Peninsula)
  • Hashem el-Tar If (eastcentral Sinai Peninsula north of the Gulf of Aqaba)
  • Har Karkom (southwest Negeb near the northeastern Sinai Peninsula)
  • Hala-‘l Bedr (northwest Saudi Arabia south of the Gulf of Aqaba)
  • Jabal al-Lawz (northwest Saudi Arabia just east of the Gulf of Aqaba)
