Résumé
--
Three paths... Three paths of people who left the world they were born in without looking back, the world they grew up in, the world they loved... to go where? A man from nowhere, from Europe or Egypt, the Middle East or Australia, who knows? A man, one day, came to the door of Saint Catherine's monastery and laid down his bag. A hermit at heart, he begins a long climb, rock after rock, to the summit of the mountain, to God... Long ago, Moses left Egypt. Gathering men, women and children, he walks forward, turning his back on the rich dark soil of the Nile valley, the glowing, tender green shoots in the fields, but also the unbearable violence of the Pharaoh against his people. How he longs for the Mountain of God! He rushes forward through the desert, towards that Holy Land, to the east of his heart. Joseph, Mary and the Child just escaped from Palestine. They cannot take the coastal route, too dangerous, patrolled by Herod's men who want the Child dead. So they plunge into the mountainous landscape of Sinai. The desert and the bare stone welcome them and, in immense silence, closes in around them. Do they travel to Mount Horeb? We know nothing about their journey. Let us follow it as we listen to a small inner voice that rises up to God in a sacred pilgrimage. For it is at the foot of that same Mount Horeb, in the Burning Bush, that all things assemble and three paths rise up and intersect, in God. Nathalie Beaux, Egyptologist, invites us on a spiritual journey to the heart of Mount Sinai, a journey that crosses all borders and religions to reach the essence: an abandon of the self, an experience of faith."
