Israel's Escape Front Egypt. (:olden Text: i1 od. 14. 30. TIIE I.I;sSON \\'ORD STUDIES. The Depnrlure from Egypt. The local- ity from which the Israelites emigrated was the vicinity of the Iwo store cities, Rannises (Mimeses) and Pilhom (Hero- opolis, Succoth). which they had built to! • Pharaoh. fhe actual starling point was Raamses and the first stopping place a: Succoth. From thence they proceevld eastward to Ethane, "in the edge of the wilderness." Elham is in all probribilily to be identifled'wlth a frontier Egyptian fortress. bearing the some name (Khe- lam). Checked before fide fortress, with er without loss as the ease may be, the Israelites were bidden hy Jehovah to "turn back and encamp before Pi-hahi- nosh, between Aligdol and the sea, before Baal-zephon" (Exod. 14. 2). Of all (hese places connected with the initial stage of Israel's journey only Pilhom has been positively located. 11 is to be identified with the modern Tcl-el-Maskuta, which marks the site of the ancient city also called Succoth, which again is the Greek Iteroopolis. When we bear in mind that. the nunibeeof Israelites said to have left Egypt at the lime of the exodus was 110 less than MONO men. besides children, and that. by "men" is meant here, as in Num. 1. 3.43. only males above twenty years of age. and that (herefore the entire body of Israel. iles departing (mot Egypt .must have been upward of Iwo trillion souls. we cannot suppose that this entire company had guttered el Raanises, the point froom which they are 5nid to have started.

To the memoralele record of this attempt we are to give our nitenhion in our study of the present les- son. Verse 13.

The exact pc.int al which the Israelites crossed the watersthe ' of (,elf Is not to bo deter- mined, but we are doubtless to think of some point lying between wesn the present northern extremity of the Gulf and the waters of the Ritter Lakes. The manner in which the waters were parted, thus offering to the Israelites a wry of eacupe, is suggested in our explanation of verse 21 below. 17. Harden - I -fl„ "make strong."
