The Crossing Places: The first book in the megaselling Ruth Galloway series (The Dr Ruth Galloway Mysteries 1)

Product Information

Norfolk is a largely rural county, located on the east coast of England, in an area known as East Anglia, about a 2 hour train ride from London. Its 43-mile coast along the North Sea is defined by a range of wide beaches, chalky cliffs, sand dunes, and salt marshes that house world-famous bird reserves. The area was designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in 1968, with over 450 square kilometers (173 square miles) of undeveloped coastal landscape. The villages display a mixture of Victorian and Edwardian architecture, and over 650 medieval churches remain throughout Norfolk county. The birdwatching on North Caicos and Middle Caicos is excellent. All of the Caicos Islands feature marine wetlands, however, the vast majority of the wildlife-sheltering red mangrove population in the Turks and Caicos are located off the southern side of the two islands. Almost 150,000 acres of protected national park and nature reserve surround the two islands.

But it can be too easy to get caught up in the “seaweed” ( suph)—and lose the entire sea ( yam). The sacred biblical symbolism and message of the departure from Egypt and crossing of the Red Sea is indelibly tied to the Passover/Days of Unleavened Bread, picturing for us the departure from and complete removal of sin. And the arrival at Mount Sinai, with the giving of the law and the flames of divine fire, are inseparable from the symbolism of the day of Shavuot/Pentecost—picturing our covenant to and relationship with God. That is the real biblical message of the Exodus. Please note: All pictures are indicative only – all rooms and layouts vary slightly. Take a look at The narrator talks about road safety while wee see an animation of someone crossing a road, in a car, playing by a road with a ball and wearing high visibility clothing and a helmet. At the core of this debate (indeed, an impetus for certain researchers to consider a more distant Gulf of Aqaba crossing) is the identification of Mount Sinai—the location where Moses was first called by God, and the mountain before which the Israelites later encamped and received the Ten Commandments. This article is not intended to establish the exact identity of the mountain. But we will need to spend a little time on it based on how the geographic area relates to the sea crossing, which would naturally have taken place west of it.Plantation owners bought enslaved people to work on their land for free. This meant plantation owners were able to make huge profits from the goods that were produced. When they retired, many plantation owners moved to England. They used their wealth to obtain political power or invest in factories, funding the industrial revolution. George Hibbert, a British plantation owner and politician, was pro-slavery and fought against William Wilberforce’s abolition campaign . He believed it would be costly to the British Empire.

While the series is her most popular work to date, the author has written several other books under her real name,Domenica de Rosa, andhas recently started a new series called DI Stephens & Max Mephisto, with two books published to date.

The Patterns of Evidence documentaries are well-produced, thought-provoking films examining the historical evidence for some of the greatest stories in the Bible—namely, the slavery of the Israelites, the existence of Moses, the Exodus, and the parting of the Red Sea. Patterns of Evidence: Exodus did a fantastic job in presenting the evidence for a historical Exodus that fits squarely with biblical chronology—during the 15th century b.c.e. The documentaries bring together different minds offering different views and opinions on the historicity, chronology, and location of various events. The Bible states that it took roughly two months to reach the territory of Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:1, Numbers 33:3). 400 kilometers in a handful of days—80 kilometers in two months? The math just does not add up.Located on the map (right) is the primary Israelite starting point: Avaris. This “Israelite city” was very effectively identified in the earlier Patterns of Evidence: Exodus documentary. Archaeological discoveries have helped to pinpoint this location as a sort-of “Israelite capital” in the wider, more generally established delta territory of the Land of Goshen. (It is also apparent that a contingent of Israelites—including Moses and Aaron—would have been further south, in or around the Egyptian capital Memphis; i.e. Exodus 12:31.) There are several lesson plans, short films for children to watch and even a Safer Journeys Anthem!
