"Mount Sinai (Arabic: طُوْر سِيْنَاء‎, romanized: Ṭūr Sīnāʾ; Hebrew: הַר סִינַי, Har Sinai; Greek: Όρος Σινάι), traditionally known as Jabal Musa (Arabic: جَبَل مُوسَىٰ‎, translation: Mount Moses), is a mountain in the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt that is a possible location of the biblical Mount Sinai, the place where Moses received the Ten Commandments.

It is a 2,285-metre (7,497 ft) moderately high mountain near the city of Saint Catherine in the region known in modern times as the Sinai Peninsula. It is next to Mount Catherine (at 2,629 m or 8,625 ft, the highest peak in Egypt). It is surrounded on all sides by higher peaks of the mountain range." - (en.wikipedia.org 26.05.2020)
