''In brief'': {{summary | text=The Sinai Peninsula (in Arabic, شبه جزيرة سيناء) is a triangle-shaped peninsula lying between the [[Mediterranean Sea ]] (to the north) and [[Red Sea ]] (to the south). It is almost entirely desert. Mount Sinai is the name of the mountain in Sinai where [[God ]] gave the [[Ten Commandments ]] to Moses. Since the time of [[Saint Helena ]] it has been identified with Jabal Musa (or Gebel Musa), a mountain 2,285 meters high in the southern Sinai Peninsula. }}
