Etam
Opis
Etam — morda drugo ime za Khetam ali “trdnjava,” na Shur ali veliki zid Egipta, ki se je raztezal od Sredozemlja do Sueškega zaliva. Tukaj so Izraelci postavili svoj tretji tabor [2Mz 13:20 ; 4Mz 33:6 ]. Tabor je bil verjetno malo zahodno od sodobnega mesta Ismailia. Tukaj so Izraelci dobili ukaz, naj spremenijo svojo pot [2Mz 14:2 ] in “zavijejo” proti jugu ter se utaborijo pred Pi-hahirotom. (Glej EXODUS ; PITHOM.)

Etham
perhaps another name for Khetam, or "fortress," on the Shur or great wall of Egypt, which extended from the Mediterranean to the Gulf of Suez. Here the Israelites made their third encampment (Ex 13:20; Num 33:6). The camp was probably a little to the west of the modern town of Ismailia. Here the Israelites were commanded to change their route (Ex 14:2), and "turn" towards the south, and encamp before Pi-hahiroth. (See EXODUS; PITHOM)
