Digital Logos Edition
Beginning in France, traveling though Egypt, and ending in Beersheba, Bonar’s travelogue was mostly written in the form of journal notes while traveling on a camel. A fascinating window into the Bible lands of the 19th century.
In the Logos edition of The Desert of Sinai, all Scripture references link to original language texts and English Bible translations in your digital library and display on mouseover. Logos’ advanced tools make this resource the most useful edition for sermon preparation, theological research, and historical study.
Dr. Bonar, the author of some of the best hymns ever produced in Scotland, and in other respects favorably known as a writer of religious books, is a very pleasant traveler, especially in the regions of Bible geography. He has a lively sense of natural beauty, and is always on the alert to catch every possible illustration of the events, the doctrines, or the phraseology of the Bible.

It is vivacious, entertaining, and instructive throughout, and is especially interesting beyond other volumes we have lately seen, in the views he presents of the passage of the Red Sea, the origin of the inscriptions on the rocks in the vicinity of Sinai, and the delineation of the country living directly between Sinai and Beersheba.
