TOUR OVERVIEW:
Mount Sinai, Saudi Arabia & Petra
RETRACE THE MOST FAMOUS BIBLICAL JOURNEY OF ALL TIME!
The foundational narrative of the Exodus, as outlined in the second book of the Torah of Yahweh, contains some of the most vital and momentous accounts in the Torah. The quest to uncover the archaeological and geological evidence of the Israelites’ liberation from Egypt, Moses’ revelation at Mount Sinai, and the nation of Israel’s ensuing desert wanderings has captured the hearts and minds of some of history’s most brilliant scholars and explorers.
This expedition will begin in Jordan, where you will have an opportunity to step into the Biblical narrative where the Hebrews spent 38 of their 40 years on the Exodus journey. You will have an in-depth look at Petra, Little Petra, Beidha, Mount Seir, and Ein Mishpat before you cross into Saudi Arabia and explore the well-preserved sights—and sites—of the chapters of Exodus 14-40 within Arabia. You will navigate the route surrounding the hidden city of Petra, which is located right inside the Biblical mountain range of Seir. While Petra is the most widely known hidden city of the Nabataeans, you will learn even more! Even the name, Nebaioth, is the name of one of Abraham’s descendants. Then your next steps will take you into the genealogy of another son of Abraham, Midian, in Arabia. You will be a first-hand witness to the expansion and revealing of the region’s antiquities, which have remained behind the veil until this time. You will be part of an intensive and rich exploration that will see the newest discoveries as they pertain to the Biblical texts.
“And the Lord said unto Moses, ‘Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves: They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt” Exodus 32:7-8
Camping at the Base of the Blackened-top of Mount Sinai!
This is your once-in-a-lifetime chance to overnight and fellowship where God met with Moses and handed down His Covenant!
You may choose whichever adventure is perfect for you! Your time at Sinai includes special meals, and, should you wish to climb, it also includes one specialized climbing guide for 3-5 climbers (per guide).
Your expedition includes the “glamping” time, but you are welcome to return to your hotel if you prefer. This overnight will highlight Moses’ time in the land of Midian and in the extraordinary presence of the real Mount Sinai. While overnighting here, you will have the extra time to hike the region and trek the same route that Moses may have taken. You do not need to climb the mountain in order to enjoy this overnight experience.
You will partake in classic fellowship and learning at the main sites throughout the tour, but with this amazing activity included. If you enjoy an activity level that is different from your spouse’s or travel companion’s, you have the option to select different activities; some stay at the camp, some return to a hotel, and some climb Mount Sinai.
