    There are many theories as to the exodus route that the Jews took when leaving Egypt. This map shows a tangled route that leaves from the Nile Delta, crosses the Red Sea and travels around the Sinai and lower present day Israel, winding up to eastern shore of the Jordan River. A crisp engraving it notes many placenames, and is surrounded with vignettes of priestly articles such as the Tabernacle, Ark of the Covenant, as well as scenes of a priest and high priest.

    Condition is very good, with some of the right edge remargined, but not effecting the image. Image size is 8.5 x 13 (inches).
