Red Sea Crossing Site found?

Menu

It looks like our bible maps need updating. Most of our current maps show the Red Sea Crossing happening on the West side of the Red Sea. The evidence shown here is from the East side of the Rea Sea know as the Gulf of Aqaba. Once again Ron Wyatt was on the search for the Red Sea Crossing. Surely if this event had really happened, there should be some type of evidence.

To start with, how about 2 huge pillars on each side of the Red Sea with Hebrew inscription by none other than King Solomon giving honor to God and setting these pillars as a memorial to the Rea Sea Crossing itself. These two pillars were on both sides of the Red Sea, one in Egypt and the other in Saudi Arabia.
For those looking for surface evidence this maybe OK but it still provides no proof of the crossing. How do we know if King Solomon really knew this was the site of the crossing.

A deep water scan was performed in the area reveling an underwater sand bridge linking the two countries together. This under water sand bridge probably originated at the time of the flood as sediment from both countries feed into the gulf creating this bridge. The Red Sea on the Aqaba side is about 5,000 feet deep; the sand bridge is only 1,000 feet deep. This would have given the Israelites a gentle slope to walk and bring their carts across. Any other area would not have been suitable for a crossing as the underwater terrain is filled with cliffs and drop-off's, not suitable for any wheeled vehicle to cross. Understandably, the sand bride is still under 1,000 feet of water but doesn't the bible say they crossed in the Great Deep. Imagine having a 1,000 feet wall and water on either side. Truly this would be a miracle.

It should also be noted that the territory leading to this sand bridge is like a dried river bed with very steep cliffs on either side. The path leads to a sand peninsula with no where to go. It's a wonder the bible says that the Israelites were hemmed in by the desert. The Egyptians behind them, the Red Sea to the East. It also says that the Lord showed up as a Cloud by day and a Pillar of fire by night.

Then the angel of God, who had been traveling in front of the Israel's army, withdrew and went behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from in front and stood behind them coming between the armies of Egypt and Israel. Throughout the night the cloud brought darkness to one side and light to the other side so neither went near the other all night.

I often wondered how could a column of fire block or separate two groups of people, as you would think all they had to do was walk around the cloud or fire. However the landscape here shows the high cliffs and if the Lord decided to block the entrance to this sand bridge there would be no way around it.

Last but not least you would think that if the entire Egyptian army with 600 chariots perished in the sea that there should be some type of evidence under the sea.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea so that the waters may flow back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horsemen".

Ron Wyatt and his team decided to make a dive and check it out for themselves. The fact is they found many coral covered chariot frames and even found a gold covered chariot wheel. The evidence is over whelming.
