If you want to talk about something else, why can't Eden have been there?

We are still uncovering geographic names as data comes in, but I wouldn't count M-Tz-R-A-I-M in that list, since like Mohsen said that is what it is called today.
I don't care if there is a Heliopolis in Lebanon. I am sticking to the subject.
Right but this is post-Exodus/pre-Exodus.
Where does it say what two streams Egypt is between? How do you know?
Language is not my strong suit, but I think I am doing alright so far.
Magus, if you want to seem credible - present evidence. What you are currently doing is playing a game of Chinese Whispers... with yourself.
Peace
I don't think you have anything new to add to your argument and I don't believe you. No one believes in Santa Claus. You are welcome to your beliefs. I am not going to play this game of charades any longer. Have a good day.Magus, if you want to seem credible - present evidence.

Every single statement here is wrong. Literally every single one.Rival doesn't have a real religion, He is not allowed to join Judaism , so he creates his own and claim Noah wrote Seven laws on a Tablet,
The only time that the plural form is used for the singular to indicate respect is for G-d and only in two Names.Trippy nonsense !!! is what it is... the OP doesn't seem to know that Mizr, is the ancient and still extant name for Egypt in the Middle East. In fact, Egyptians call their land in their native languages - Mizr... the a-im, at the end in Hebrew denote the suffix of respect! Mizra'im - Egypt, in modern day!
OP sorry to put a pin in that bubble, but it had to burst at some point!

In Hebrew, the word mṣr means 'strait' or 'boundary'(the root means to constrict). The Hebrew aim at the end corresponds to the Arabic aan indicating duality. Plural is indicated with im (without the a). The Biblical name for Egypt is MiṢRaIM (where the capital letters indicate Hebrew letters and lowercase indicates diacritics). There are a number of theories about the name. If you take the meaning of the word mṣr then you get dual-strait or double-boundary. If you take the name as is, it means dual-Egypt which may have to do with the land being divided into an upper and lower region.
Not that I think the OP has any idea about what he's talking...
I have completely uprooted the entire story of the Exodus out of real-world Egypt.
What is the basis for your claim? I found no lexigraphical source that supports your claim. Most say it means the two fortresses, some the two straits. Nothing about between or streams.The one word that puts it in Egypt is מִצְרַיִם ' Mizraim ' , this word means 'between two streams'
Not a single thing in gen 10 says anything about the location of hamath in relation to sinai.Genesis 10 nearly puts Sinai right next to Hamath
Num 34:8
* Mount Hor is near 'Hamath
From mount Hor ye shall point out your border unto the entrance of Hamath
Num 21:4 *Mount Hor is near Red Sea
And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom
There is a second mount hor in the south, associated with the territory of edom.
Sorry Mohsen,wtf? You and magus are the same person aren't ya? !!!
