ground to a height of up to five kilometers. There is a chimney effect. The pressure of hot air reaches hurricane speeds. The temperature can rise up to 1000C. Everything burns or melts. At the same time, everything that is nearby is „sucked“ into the fire. And so on until everything that can burn burns down. In addition, geophysicists have uncovered the secret of strange lights, sometimes preceding earthquakes. These glows occur in rift zones, where special charge carriers appear in rocks. Since the birth of seismology as a science in the 19th century, many scientists have begun to think about the nature of some phenomena that may be harbingers of aftershocks. Perhaps one of the strangest such phenomena, sometimes bearing a touch of mysticism, are the glow in the atmosphere that people have been observing for centuries on the eve of earthquakes. In the Russian-language literature, the name „earthquake lights“ has taken root for them, abroad they are called „earthquake lights“ or EQL for short. Their study on a scientific basis began relatively recently in many countries. The first scientific work on lights was written by the Irish engineer Robert Mallet in 1851. In it, he listed many cases of observing lights, starting from the 17th century BC and ending in 1842. Geologist Robert Theriot, an employee of the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Canadian province of Quebec, in his article published in the journal Seismological Research Letters, tried to systematize information about observations of earthquake lights and find out what leads to their occurrence. Having researched historical sources, Therio analyzed 65 documented appearances of lights that have been observed since 1600 AD in Europe and North America. Comparing the eyewitness data with the currently available data on the geological structure of earthquake sites, the scientist came to the conclusion that the majority of cases of observation of lights occur in areas of rift zones – areas of rupture of the earth’s crust formed as a result of its longitudinal movement or fracture. It turned out that the vast majority of documented luminescence was observed near the so—called grabens – areas of the earth’s crust lowered along steep vertical cliffs. An example of such a geological formation is the depression of Lake Baikal. One of the last documented glows occurred on the eve of the devastating earthquake of 2009 in Italian L’Aquila. Then, just a few seconds before the earthquake, local residents noticed 10-centimeter lights hovering over the cobblestone Francesco Crispi Street in the historic center of the city. On November 12, 1988, a bright, purplish-pink ball was seen moving in the sky near Quebec 11 days before a powerful earthquake. And two days before the devastating earthquake in San Francisco in 1906, which killed up to 3 thousand people, people observed streams of light spreading along the earth’s surface. A common property of all areas where earthquake lights were observed was the presence of deep vertical faults, whose role in the formation and propagation of the glow is not completely clear. „We don’t know exactly why most of the glow is associated with rift zones and not with other types of faults, but unlike other faults that can form at an angle of 30—35 degrees, for example in subduction zones, cases of glow are associated with subvertical faults,“ Terio explained. The magnitude of the earthquakes that were included in the list of analyzed ones lay in the range of 3.6—9.2. And the lights themselves had different shapes and sizes, although most of them were spherical lights moving or resting, or flashes rising from the ground. The time of observation of the lights and their distance to the epicenters of the earthquakes were different. Most of the lights were observed before or during earthquakes, and extremely rarely after. This led scientists to believe that the rapid accumulation of mechanical stresses in the earth’s crust and their changes at the time of propagation of seismic waves leads to the emergence of fires. Positive charge carriers (holes) arising from stresses in rocks flow rapidly along the stress gradient, reach the surface, where air molecules ionize and cause it to glow. According to Theriot, he remembered most of all the case with a resident of Aquila. This man, seeing the lights from the house two hours before the earthquake, rushed to his family and took her to a safe place. „This is one of the very few documented cases where someone acted upon noticing the earthquake lights. These lights, as a harbinger phenomenon, in combination with other types of parameters, will someday be able to warn about strong earthquakes,“ explained scientist Pavel Kotlyar. Here, most likely, there was not only an earthquake, but also the eruption of several volcanoes, including underground and underwater, since this is a seismically active region where the plates of the Eurasian and African continents converge, which led to such „miracles“).»

Chapter 14 (as the most important is given in full)
«1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying: (The gentleman talks to Moses in this way, which proves that he knows the language that Moses spoke).
2 Tell the children of Israel to turn and encamp before Pi-Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal-Zephon; set up a camp opposite him by the sea. (Baal-Zephon (Suez) is the northern tip of the Gulf of Suez. Migdol may have been a watchtower located in a strategically important location on Mount Jebel Ataka. Pi-Gahirof was located not far from the Red Sea – where the only way of retreat from the approaching Egyptian army lay through the sea. Egyptian fortresses were scattered throughout the country, including in the Sinai Peninsula. At that point, the sea had to be deep enough for the waters to separate, forming a passage «among the sea» and a water «wall» on both sides. No place north of the Gulf of Suez meets these conditions. However, many modern scientists are of the opinion that the Israelis walked through shallow water in the area of the Bitter Lakes, which begins about 25 km north of Suez. However, scientists deny that the Israelites’ passage was due to a miracle (claiming that it was a swampy area), or believe that in ancient times the northern tip of the Red Sea was part of the area of the Bitter Lakes and that at that time there was much deeper, although, judging by archaeological evidence, the water level has since been practically has not changed).
3 And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are lost in this land; the wilderness has shut them up. (The priest claims that Pharaoh assumed that the Israelites died in the desert).
4 But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will pursue them, and I will show my glory on Pharaoh and on all his army; and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD. And they did so. (Foreshadowing of a sign).
5 And it was announced to the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants turned against this people, and they said, What have we done? why did they let the Israelis go so that they wouldn’t work for us? (That is, Jews, also called Israelis, were used as guest workers).
6 [Pharaoh] harnessed his chariot and took his people with him; (Chariots were widely used).
7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them. (So not all the animals of the Egyptians died!).
8 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; and the children of Israel walked with a high hand. (What a narrative without a chase!).
9 And the Egyptians pursued them, and all the horses with Pharaoh’s chariots, and the horsemen, and all his army, and overtook them encamped by the sea, at Pi-Gahiroth before Baal-Zephon. (That is, in the area of the modern city of Suez).
10 Pharaoh drew near, and the children of Israel looked back, and, behold, the Egyptians were coming after them: and the children of Israel were greatly afraid, and cried out to the LORD, (The punishment is near).
11 And they said to Moses, Are there no tombs in Egypt, that you have brought us to die in the wilderness? What did you do to us, bringing us out of Egypt? (The outrage of the Israelites).
12 Isn’t that what we told you in Egypt, saying: Leave us, let us work for the Egyptians? For it is better for us to be enslaved by the Egyptians than to die in the desert. (They are slaves.)
13 But Moses said to the
