Timothy P. Mahoney
Patterns of Evidence: The Red Sea Miracle (2020)
Desert
THE RED SEA MIRACLE, is the first in a two-part film series by Patterns of Evidence’s award-winning filmmaker, Timothy Mahoney. In this investigation he examines the journey to the crossing location, looking at two competing views of the Red Sea Miracle. One he calls the “Egyptian Approach,” which looks near Egypt. The other he calls the “Hebrew Approach,” which looks far from Egypt to the Gulf of Aqaba where divers have been searching for the remains of Pharaoh’s army on the seafloor. The investigation raises giant questions about the real location for the crossing site and its implications on your view of God. The answers to these questions point to one of two very different realities.

S7E1 - The Wilderness Before the Sea
Which wilderness did Moses and the Israelites cross before being trapped at the sea? Were biblical wildernesses always deserts? Go deeper into the debate between the two views on the size of the Exodus wilderness.
S7E2 - How Many Days to the Sea?
Determining the Exodus route to the sea is all about time and distance. Was the sea reached in just 3 days or was it more than 3 weeks? Explore biblical clues to how many days it took the Israelites to cross the wilderness before they reached the sea.
S7E3 - The First 2 Camps of Succoth and Etham
In the Bible, God commands Moses to record a list of the stops during the Exodus journey. The first 2 camps on this list are seen very differently by the Egyptian and Hebrew approaches. Were these camps inside Egypt or out in the wilderness?
• The Egyptian Approach to the First Campsites
• The Hebrew Approach to the First Campsites
• The Second Campsite of Etham
S7E4 - How Far Could the Animals Travel?
One factor determining the speed at which Moses and the Israelites could have traveled was the capabilities of the animals with them. How far can sheep go? Was there enough water for them all? And could some animals actually help them travel faster?
S7E5 - Was There Water in the Sinai?
Was there water in the Sinai to sustain the Israelites’ journey? Tim Mahoney and Steve Law discuss the variables before Tim gives a behind-the-scenes account of the rainstorm he encountered in the Sinai region.
S7E6 - Debating the Israelites’ Speed of Travel
How much ground could the Israelites cover in a day and therefore what size wilderness might have been crossed in the time allowed? Tim Mahoney and Steve Law discuss the various opinions in the Egyptian and Hebrew approaches.
S7E7 - Travel Rates and Routes in the Wilderness
The main travel route options are explored while considering how far the Israelites might have traveled in 24 hours. What were the upper limits of the armies? And could Pharaoh’s chariots realistically have crossed the Sinai Peninsula?
