Yam Suph, the Hebrew name for the Sea of the Exodus, has traditionally been called the "Red Sea" and placed at the Gulf of Suez near Egypt. More recently, many scholars have defined it as the "Reed Sea" and assigned it to various inland Egyptian estuaries. However, such locations do not harmonize with the biblical data that clearly identify Yam Suph as the modern Gulf of Aqaba.
The confusion began over 2,000 years ago with the Greek Septuagint Bible, which equated the Hebrew Yam Suph with the Greek concept of the Red Sea. Because the Greeks were unaware of the Gulf of Aqaba, the Gulf of Suez became the default site for Yam Suph. Geographical ignorance of the Gulf of Aqaba persisted for most of history, contributing to the persistence of the Red Sea tradition.
The various "Reed Sea" theories, which are now favored over the Red Sea tradition, mainly hinge on the linguistic theory that suph referred to vegetation. But, these supposed botanical meanings are readily discredited by basic linguistic analyses of the Hebrew vocabulary related to suph.
A Gulf of Aqaba location for Yam Suph invalidates all of the theories that have placed the Exodus sea crossing near Egypt. More importantly, it mandates that Mount Sinai must be sought in the region of ancient Midian in northwest Saudi Arabia, not in the Sinai Peninsula.
