There is an amazing diversity of opinion about where sacred events took place in the lives of Moses, Elijah, and Lehi. Many of those ideas include awkward incongruities with geography and logic. This booklet presents a synthesis of the most logical narratives for where the children of Israel crossed the Red Sea, where Moses received the Ten Commandments, where Elijah had his mountain encounter with God, and where Lehi sojourned in Arabia for 8 years enroute to his promised land.

Using Google Earth's satellite images to sort through the options, it was not difficult to smoothly fit the historical record of these prophets' experiences into the real topography of Arabia, thereby making those sacred events easier to visualize and logically located. Although the three prophets were widely separated in time, their stories converge near the Mountain of God in Arabia, where the adjacent peaks of Horeb (Jebel al Lawz) and Sinai (Jabal Maqla) dominate. Nearby is Arabia's Tayyib al-Ism mountain oasis with its perennial flow of water into the Red Sea, matching Lehi's Valley of Lemuel base camp.

This booklet's narrative is supported by full-text endnotes. If you check the endnotes as you read, you will get more details and build confidence in the conclusions. The author is an 84-year-old scientist who takes religion seriously and is astonished by today's technology that makes it so easy to view extremely detailed images of planet Earth on his home office computer.
