[Answer] 7. Which mountain in Egypt has a particular religious significance? It is sometimes called Jabal Musa.

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "7. Which mountain in Egypt has a particular religious significance? It is sometimes called Jabal Musa."



...1. Delos Mountain 2. Mount Abu 3. Mount Sinai 4. Mount Judi Mount Sinai is located in Saint Katherine City, on the Sinai peninsula in Egypt. Mount Sinai is next to Mount St. Catherine, the tallest mountain in the range. This Mount Sinai is considered by some to be the Mount Sinai of the Bible, where God passed down the Ten Commandments to Moses ('Jabal Musa' means Moses' Mountain, in Arabic). There is debate about this, however; the Bible gives only an ambiguous location for Mount Sinai, saying only that it is somewhere in Arabia, and some scholars believe that it wouldn't make sense for the Israelites to have traveled in that area of the peninsula. Nonetheless, Mount Sinai in Saint Katherine City still holds religious significance: there are 3750 "steps of penitence" going up the mountain from behind the monastery, which sits at the base of Mount Sinai and Mount St. Catherine; and there is a mosque and a Greek Orthodox church at the summit of Mount Sinai.
