Brook of Egypt

The Brook of Egypt () is a wadi identified in the Hebrew Bible as forming the southernmost border of the Land of Israel. A number of scholars have identified it with Wadi al-Arish, an ephemeral river flowing into the Mediterranean sea near the Egyptian city of Arish, while Israeli archaeologist Nadav Na'aman believes that the landform referenced in the Bible is the Besor Stream, just to the south of Gaza. A related phrase is ('river of Egypt'), used in Genesis . Provided by Wikipedia
