Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book embarks on a captivating journey through the landscapes of ancient Egypt, meticulously examining its historical geography and unraveling the misconceptions surrounding the land of Goshen, the dwelling place of the Israelites during their time in Egypt. The author delves into the intricate details of the Nile Delta, scrutinizing the works of renowned historians and geographers, including Herodotus, Strabo, and Ptolemy. By critically analyzing their interpretations and exposing their inconsistencies, the author reconstructs a more accurate picture of the region's layout and challenges the prevailing assumptions about the location of Goshen. Central to the discussion is the exploration of the various nomes or provinces within the Delta, with particular emphasis on the enigmatic "Arabian nome." Through a comprehensive examination of historical texts and etymological analysis, the author sheds light on the true position of this province and its neighboring regions, revealing a nuanced understanding of the political and geographical landscape of ancient Egypt. By rectifying historical inaccuracies and offering a fresh perspective on the geography of this ancient land, this book invites readers to re-evaluate their understanding of a pivotal period in biblical history and appreciate the profound influence that geographical context has on shaping historical narratives. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
