Why do we say Mount Sinai not Sinai Mount?
For the same reason we say Mount Shasta, Mount Rainer, Mount fuji, ETC. Must have something to do with English construction. The Hebrew is also "Har Sinai" which is "Mount Sinai" not "Sinai Mount".
Why is the Sinai Peninsula of military importance to both Egypt and Israel?
Almost every war between Egypt and Israel has been fought in or using the Sinai Peninsula. Egypt has used the Sinai Peninsula as a launching point for its invasion of Israel in 1948 and in preparations for the likely invasion of Israel in 1967. Israel conquered the Sinai and was forced to relinquish it in 1956. In 1973, the Sinai Peninsula (under Israeli Occupation) served as a strong buffer to the Egyptian surprise invasion attempt.
Did the Palestinians originally belong to any tribe of Israel?
A:Throughout much of ancient history, the Levant region was an ethnic melting pot. No one ethnic group could truly trace its origins back exclusively to one tribe or group of tribes. The modern Palestinians could regard their ancestry as a combination of Canaanites, Philistines, Nabataeans (who settled around the Sinai region in late biblical times), as well as Greek and Roman settlers. They would almost certainly include among their ancestors some Idumeans who avoided forced conversion to Judaism, and even some Jews who converted from Judaism to Christianity or Islam. Finally, the Arab and then Turkish conquests would have added to the ethnic mix, just as they did to all the other ethnic groups in the Middle East.However, Palestinians do not assert themselves to be one or part of the Tribes of Israel nor is a view of that nature commonly accepted by non-Palestinians.
