On mt.Sinai in the book of Exodus. Exodus, Leviticus and Nehemiah wrote, God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses at Mt. Sinai.

Malachi 34:27 wrote; It was "commanded unto him (Moses) in Horeb."

Christian Tradition put it at Mt. Sinai

"The Biblical Mount Sinai is an ambiguously located mountain at which the Hebrew Bible states that the Ten Commandments were given to Moses by God.[1] In certain biblical passages these events are described as having transpired at Mount Horeb" excerpted from Wikipedia "Biblical Mount Sinai" see link at bottom of page

Mount Horeb and Mount Sinai are not two different mountains in two completely different locations.

Mount Horeb has been interpreted as referring to two different things. According to one interpretation, Horeb is a particular minor peak on the way to the major peak of Sinai. According to the other view, Horeb describes the whole range of which Sinai is a peak. In any case it is obvious the two are connected closely and so there is simply no need to cast any doubt upon the Biblical record, as suggested. People simply preferred either one of the two possible designations, both of which would have been known as referring to a place in very close proximity, and undoubtedly understood by the people of the time.
