Note 302 — THE HEBREW TRADITION.
Joanna B. Horner translation
Wilkinson (Mod. Eg. p. 319) misunderstands the passage when he supposes that Patumos was situated at the other end of the canal, on the Red Sea. He appears here to have followed Jomard, who, in his map of the Delta, also places it at the head of the bay, although he places Pithom in the right position.
