Plot

With Bible in hand, Cornuke, a freelance adventurer who has appeared on TV programs such as "Ancient Secrets of the Bible," crisscrossed the Near East searching for the definitive site of Mt. Sinai, where Moses is said to have received the Ten Commandments from God. He claims to have discovered the actual location where the Israelites crossed the Red Sea, the altar of the golden calf, and the Rock of Horeb, struck by Moses to give water to his people, and, of course, the location of the real Mt. Sinai. Most of his findings are based upon scriptural evidence that many scholars are unwilling to admit can be called fact, such as the controversy as to whether the Israelites actually crossed the Red Sea or the Reed Sea.
