Where is Rithmah in the Bible?
Rithmah was a camping site in the Sinai Peninsula where the Israelites stopped during their forty-year wilderness wandering from Egypt to the Promised Land of Canaan. Mentioned in Numbers 33:18-19, Rithmah appears in the detailed itinerary of the Israelites' journey, which recorded each major encampment along their route. The exact modern location of Rithmah remains uncertain, though scholars generally place it somewhere within the wilderness regions of the Sinai. While the Bible provides little detail about specific events at Rithmah itself, the site represents one of many stops during Israel's extended period of wandering in the desert before entering Canaan.
