Abstract
I spent five days in June this summer exploring Mount Yeroham and the region around it in the northern Negev of Israel. This excursion was a great success. My desire now is to share as much of my experience with you, my readers and friends, as the medium of writing may permit. This goal cannot be accomplished in a single issue. In the present article I focus on the foundational issue of how we can be confident Mount Yeroham is the true Mount Sinai. In future issues I hope to report on the excursion itself, including many photographs which were taken while at Yeroham. I am also hoping, before too many months have passed, to make more of this experience available on video, from footage filmed on the site. The total personnel for this excursion consisted of myself, Dr. Gerald E. Aardsma, and my cameraman, Philip Gioga (pronounced Joy-a). Philip is a friend of the family of a number of years and a college student in a communications program.
