If you wish, read Exodus chapter 3, it explains why Moses brought the Israelites to the Mountain of God. God told Moses to bring the people there. And Moses simply did what God asked him to do.
Perhaps because God is real, just a hypothesis.
Horeb, Mt Sinai, and the Mountain of God are all names for the same Mountain Range. The Mountain is massive and sits on the East edge of Midian, which is also the West side of the Wilderness, just as described in the Exodus account.
Horeb is the highest peak on the Mountain, Sinai is a secondary peak on the same Mountain. They both share the same base.
When you are at Mt. Sinai, you are also at Horeb, it is all the same Mountain which has multiple individual Peaks.
The highest peak is Horeb, and so the name “Horeb” is often used to describe the whole Mountain.
We still use similar methods to describe locations today.
Most countries on Earth have more than one city.
If I say I am going to Paris, people know I am going to a specific area of France.
The parallel here would be...
If I say I am going to Mt. Sinai, people know I am going to a specific area of Horeb.
Hope you are doing well!
I have read an earlier thread of yours which tells me why there is a lack of participation in this thread.
It seems to me now that you are not interested in the truth and in fact incapable of recognising the problem you have that of a complete inability to be rational in considering facts.
But know this if you were to present what you claim to be evidence in court or in a paper for peer review it would be rejected., and of course you would not accept that result from a court or a peer review which must tell you something and the fact that you would take no message from such rejections is perhaps most supportive of a proposition that you are in fact delusional and so obsessed by your belief that you have entirely lost touch with reality.
And again you will brush that off because in your delusional state you believe you are cleverer than all the scientists, archeologists and scholars who find against your position.
Now pretend humility but you will not fool me.
And sadly you are one of many who present as nice people but who are indeed fanatics capable of doing anything at all if they take it in their head that they are obeying their made up god.
But please go on and on because the longer you deny reality hopefully the more folk passing by will appreciate the damage religion does to otherwise normal people.
The reality you cite as authority a book full of errors and horrible morality but thru an unsupported notion that it is the word of your made up god you are totally blind to any flaw which is odd for I can find several in each and every page in the bible that I have read cover to cover.
Yet you can via your delusion not find not one error not one example of horrible morality...so tell me why are you not out on the Sabath killing folk gathering sticks on their front lawn or keeping a couple of slaves as your good book clearly permits you to do...and of course you will have the answers to defend the indefensible that is always a telling sign of delusion one umoungst many you exhibit.
And now here is your opportunity to feel smug...your response must be polite so you can feel good about yourself and in keeping with the message you acknowledge and follow in contrast to the message on slave ownership and management or the list of folk who should be put to death which you conveniently ignore...hypocrite be you.
It's a joke and happily after my anger, that such stupidity and ignorance still plagues the human race, subsides I do sit back and laugh and start to think of the faith healers, the private jets, the talking in tounges, the talking snakes,the dress ups and then the starvation and inequity in the world seems ok because obviously there is no god to fix it just fools playing make believe too fearful to embrace reality.
You have nothing to offer but I know that won't stop you..your kind are not content to suffer your illness alone but want to infect all around you...bugger off and keep away until you get better.
