Semitic Delphi.


Briefly, these stones seem to ex-
plain why Moses and his people want
ed to go into the wilderness. That
speech which gave above was more
than a mere ruse; for here, close to
Sinai, Prof. Petrie and his workers
have found what is little less than
sort of Semitic Delphi--a great cen
ter of worship, prayer and sacrifice
for the whole Semitic world. 1t was
Niebuhr who first discovered that
there was a temple near Sinai. But it
might have been just an ordinary
Egyptian temple to Osiris, Isis or any
of that motley crowd who dog the days
and haunt the nights of the modern
Egyptian tourist. II has now been
thoroughly dug up, and has been dis
covered to be a Semitic temple-a
temple for the Jews and their kindred
races. 1t contains a vast number of
cubicles for pilgrims who went to
dream after the manner of Jacob and
Joseph, and hundreds of little Beth
oil" stones which they erected, even as
Jacob did, to celebrate really for
tunate dream. OF course, DR.. Petrie
is much too cautious student to sug-
gest any connection between this tenn
pie and the Jewish exodus. But may
not the suggestion. at any rate. be
thrown out that 1t was to this spot
that Moses first wished to lead the
Jewish exiles? Pharaoh, acting after
his kind. refused to compromise; but
are we quite sure that if he had the
Jews might not have gone to Sinai,
sacrificed there and returned to
Egypt?
