 Rephidim
    supports, one of the stations of the Israelites, situated in the
    Wady Feiran, near its junction with the Wady esh-Sheikh. Here no
    water could be found for the people to drink, and in their
    impatience they were ready to stone Moses, as if he were the
    cause of their distress. At the command of God Moses smote "the
    rock in Horeb," and a copious stream flowed forth, enough for
    all the people. After this the Amalekites attacked the
    Israelites while they were here encamped, but they were utterly
    defeated (Ex. 17:1, 8-16). They were the "first of the nations"
    to make war against Israel (Num. 24:20).
      Leaving Rephidim, the Israelites advanced into the wilderness
    of Sinai (Ex. 19:1, 2; Num. 33:14, 15), marching probably
    through the two passes of the Wady Solaf and the Wady
    esh-Sheikh, which converge at the entrance to the plain
    er-Rahah, the "desert of Sinai," which is two miles long and
    about half a mile broad. (See SINAI; MERIBAH.)
