A researcher may have discovered the oldest references written in Moses, dating from 3,800 years old and hidden in an Egyptian desert.

The two engravings were found in Serabit El-Khadim, a former turquoise mining site in the Sinai desert where semitic workers used to work during the average bronze age.

Proto-sinaitic inscriptions date back to 1800 and 1600 BC

They were engraved centuries before the first parts of the Bible were not written between the 10th and 7th centuries before JC

The two inscriptions, among many on the site, were discovered for the first time in the early 1900s-but they are now reanalyzed by an American-Israeli epigraphist named Michael S. Bar-Ron. The expert, who is also a student graduated from Ariel University, spoke with Fox News Digital de la Découverte.

Bar-Ron postulates that inscriptions read “Zot M’Moshe” and “Ne’um Moshe”.

The sentences can mean “this comes from Moses” and “Declaration of Moses” respectively.

If they are verified, inscriptions are the first written mention of Moses outside the Bible.

The inscriptions also refer to EL, a divinity associated with the Abrahamic God, while ceasing the former pagan goddess Ba`lat.

Addressing Fox News Digital, Bar-Ron noted that the Serabit El-Khadim site formerly housed a temple in Ba`lat.

Some engravings, known as Bar-Ron, seem to reflect resistance to worship of the goddess of semitic workers.

“Rather than renting Ba`Alat … () Readings curse the cult of Ba`Alat, with warning and reprimand words to his disciples,” said Bar-Ron.

He added: “They include the terms” B in “-” for shame “or” it’s shameful “- and” nimosh “, (which means)” let “(or)” withdraw “.

The Herculean task of translating the old engravings has taken almost a decade, said Bar-Ron.

“I spent eight years actively involved in the meticulous and frustrated reconstruction of some 23 verbose proto-sinaitic inscriptions,” noted the epigraphist.

“That is to say, on the basis of the principles of adults in the field, and informed by the work of my distinguished colleagues in the field.”

He also thinks that “Moses” inscriptions can have a common author, pointing to certain “stylistic points” such as the use of words.

The thesis of bar-ron graduates explores “a mosaic type leadership” in the region at the time.

He described the latest revelations on inscriptions as a “non -essential cherry on the cake”.

“The discovery” Zot M’Moshe “and” Ne’um Moshe “were really last-minute and non-essential discoveries to this subpoint (possible mosaic), in a much more serious thesis,” he said.

Bar-RON also noted that its conclusions will be evaluated by peers in the future; His research has already been changed more than 100 times.

“If we drew such conclusions on the basis of one or two inscriptions, it would be weak,” he observed. “On the contrary, they are based on what is understood through the complete whole found in Serabit el-Khadim.”

“I cannot emphasize enough how important it is for educated readers to really read the proto-thesis itself.”

Excavators have long looked for archaeological evidence of Moses, mainly without success.

Last summer, a former sword of the era of the book of Exodus was discovered in Egypt.

More recently, a French expert identified the former “propaganda” praising Ramses II, the Egyptian leader who may have challenged Moses.
