(strong trees ), ( Exodus 15:27 ; Numbers 33:9 ) the second station where the Israelites encamped after crossing the Red Sea.

It is generally identified by the best authorities with Wady Garundel , about halfway down the shore of the Gulf of Suez. A few palm trees still remain, and the water is excellent.
