>Actually in my tanach, exodus 13:

what you quote below this is Genesis 13:14-17. Exodus 13:14-17 is something TOTALLY different.

I only mentioned the verse in Exodus as an example to Solarus about the anachronisms present in certain translations. It didn't have anything to do with anything you had previously said.

But either way, we were talking about Egypt & the Exodus, right? Where does Genesis come in?


>"And YHWH said unto Abraham after
>Lot(his brother) was separated from
>him, lift up now thine
>eyes, and look from the
>place where thou art, Northward
>and Southward and eastward and
>westward, for all teh land
>which thou seeth to thee
>I will give it and
>to thy seeds forever. And
>I will make thy seeds
>as thy dust of the
>earth, so that if a
>man can number the dust
>of the earth then shall
>thy seeds also be numbered,
>arrive walk through the land
>in the length of it
>and in the breadth of
>it for unto thee I
>will give it."

again, this is GENESIS 13:14-17. But mine says the same.


>as well the sea that Moses
>parted was - the Red
>Sea-that begins in exodus 14
>Exodus 15:4 talks about the

My Exodus 15:4 mentions the "Sea of Reeds" again: "Pharaoh's chariots and army he has hurled into the sea; the pick of his officers have been drowned in the Sea of Reeds..."

I'm not saying the "Sea of Reeds" ISN'T the Red Sea (I haven't done the geographical homework to prove/disprove otherwise), but I'm sure they would have stated as much in the other notes. Apparently, it's unclear what the "Sea of Reeds" is. Considering the time period, it could have been a body of water that has long since dried up.
