THE RED SEA CROSSING TO MIDIAN
(Exodus 14:21-25) Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the LORD drove back the sea with a strong east wind that turned it into dry land. So the waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left. And the Egyptians chased after them—all Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and horsemen—and followed them into the sea.

The numerous oases surrounded by deep canyons and the red mountain must have provided the best natural resting place for the tired souls who had traveled in the wilderness.
