Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Deuteronomy 1:19

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

19-21. we went through all that great and terrible wilderness —of Paran, which included the desert and mountainous space lying between the wilderness of Shur westward, or towards Egypt and mount Seir, or the land of Edom eastwards; between the land of Canaan northwards, and the Red Sea southwards; and thus it appears to have comprehended really the wilderness of Sin and Sinai [FISK]. It is called by the Arabs El Tih, "the wandering." It is a dreary waste of rock and of calcareous soil covered with black sharp flints; all travellers, from a feeling of its complete isolation from the world, describe it as a great and terrible wilderness. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-22" class="com-number"
