SIN*, Wilderness of

Arid, sandy region in the southwestern part of the Sinai peninsula, described in the Bible as being “between Elim and Sinai” (Ex 16:1). It is mentioned only four times in the Bible (Ex 16:1; 17:1; Nm 33:11-12) in itineraries of the exodus from Egypt. The wilderness of Sin lies to the southeast of Elim, which generally is regarded as the Wadi Gharandel.
