Details
Jebel al-Madhbah is a mountain at Petra, in present-day Jordan, which a number of scholars have proposed as the Biblical Mount Sinai , beginning with Ditlef Nielsen in 1927 . The mountain is colloquially known as Zibb 'Atuf, meaning penis of love in Arabic, presumably on account of the two carved obelisks located at the summit. The top 8 metres of the original peak was carved away to form the obelisks, destroying evidence of whatever earlier structures had been located there, except for hints that shiny blue slate once covered the summit .; the biblical description of Sinai mentions sapphire paving , which at that time referred to shiny blue paving, rather than paving made from what is now called sapphire . The name Jebel al-Madbah means mountain of the altar, and is well deserved since its summit is covered in a number of different altars, including some that are circular, and others that are square, carved into the rock.
