ROBERT CORNUKE ARRESTED FIVE TIMES

Robert Cornuke has been arrested five times in Muslim countries. He has been arrested or detained for spying in Turkey, Egypt and Iran. Why or what does he risk his health, his reputation, his very life, to find.

He has dived the Red Sea looking for Pharaoh's Chariots, scaled mountains in pursuit of Noah's Ark.

He has appeared on Fox News, MSNBC, NBC's "Dateline" and the CBS special "Ancient Secrets of the Bible" He has been featured in the pages of Newsweek, People, The New York Times, Parade and Vanity Fair. When he isn't on an expedition, Cornuke travels the country to speak at church retreats and seminars. "He has received letters and signed books for actress Jane Russell, Mr. T, DreamWorks executive Jeffrey Datzenberg, Charlton Heston and Vice President Dan Quayle, among others." He was also an honored guest at a Bible Study for the White House Staff.


Robert Cornuke and Larry Williams-a millionaire and two-time U.S. Senate candidate from Montana- managed to sneak into Saudi Arabia to look for the real "Mount Sinai". Along with a handful of previous American visitors to Saudi Arabia they climbed Jabal al Lawz, which Saudi Arabia claims is the "real" Mount Sinai". At the top of the Mount they found what stunned them both, "dirt and rock with a sheen like black marble. Assuming it to be volcanic Cornuke broke a rock in half, revealing a core of plan brown granite. Later analysis proved the rock to be metamorphic leading him to believe an "intense heat" once scorched the mountaintop.


Deuteronomy 9:15 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands. (King James Bible, Deuteronomy)


At the Mountain's Base they photographed a manmade pile of rocks they suspect served as an altar. On them were crude etchings of cows and bulls that resemble Egyptian Hathor and Apis bull gods. The altar of the golden calf:


Exodus 32:2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me. 3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron. 4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. 5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD. (King James Bible, Exodus)


Near the site, Cornuke also found a towering rock split down the middle, which he believes to be the rock at Horeb, which Moses struck with his staff to bring forth water.


Exodus 17:6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. (King James Bible, Exodus)


Through a bizarre series of coincidences Cornuke learned local spear fishermen had discovered and managed to raise four Roman-style anchor stocks from the sea floor. One was melted down to make lead diving weights, and the other three are now in a Maltese museum. "They fit all the criteria" came from the same age, same depth of water mentioned in the Bible, in front of a reef where two seas meet.


Acts: 27:41 And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.(King James Bible, Acts)
