Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: The 4,000 steps: Star religion editor Tom Harpur descends the steep twisting ''stairway'' of massive stones said to be built by monks over the centuries from Mt. Sinai's 7,500 foot summit as a penance for various sins. There are nearly 4,000 ''steps'' in all. Harpur and Star photographer Dick Loek spent the night near the cave where tradition holds that God spoke to Moses.
