Engineer Book Offers New Take on Biblical Red Sea Crossing
x/mike-donlin
— Sep 16, 2026
Jeffrey Donlin’s book A Highway in the Midst argues for a miraculous formation of dry ground during the Red Sea crossing, reinterpreting the Hebrew term Chomah to emphasize a defensive barrier rather than a vertical wall and challenging traditional readings of the Exodus. Drawing on engineering analysis and linguistic study, the work invites reevaluation of the miracle and its description.
