One of the holiest sites to have been mentioned in the Bible has finally been found, but it’s at a location that not many people were expecting at all.
A famous biblical archaeologist is making the headlines with his reported claims of finding the famous Mount Sinai and that too in the land of Saudi Arabia.
Yes, experts have mentioned how it’s at a destination that is miles away from where most people once thought it actually existed and the news is blowing so many people’s minds. But where exactly was it spotted is a question on many people’s minds.
Well, the world-famous biblical organization that is famous for searching various histological sites and relating them to relevance in religion says that Mount Sinai is in Saudi Arabia’s mountain called Jabal Maqula.
For those who may not be aware, this is the famous mountain that has been religiously mentioned in the Bible. It is where Moses lead the people of Israel, as mentioned in the Old Testament.
Many recall it as the mountain which was engulfed into smoke, thunder, and fire too. This is also where at the top, Moses got God’s ten commandments.
With so much religious significance attached, it makes absolute sense as to why the news has turned into a trending sensation.
Now, many believe that Mount Sinai is one of the world’s most sacred places, be it the Jewish, Christian, or Islamic religion. Therefore, many claim that Mount Sinai is the Jabal Maqla and this lies in the Arabian mountain range called Jabal al-Lawz, which is located in the northwestern region of Saudi Arabia.
While some claim the facts and figures that relate to the famous religious site prove how this is actually the location that many have been in search of for years, others have gone on to contradict the news, claiming that more evidence was needed to prove it’s identity.
