It is most famously known as the mountain where Moses received the Ten Commandments from God. In the New Testament, "Sina" is used to draw theological parallels between the Old Covenant given at Sinai and the New Covenant through Christ. Cultural and Historical Background: Mount Sinai is traditionally identified with a mountain in the Sinai Peninsula. It holds a central place in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. In the biblical context, it is a symbol of God's covenant with Israel, representing both the giving of the Law and the establishment of Israel as God's chosen people. The events at Sinai are foundational to Jewish identity and religious practice.
