According to the [[Torah]], Etham was on the edge of the wilderness (i.e. the edge of civilization). It has been suggested that Etham is another name for Khetam, or ''fortress,'' on the Shur or great wall of [[Egypt]], which extended from the [[Mediterranean Sea]] to the [[Gulf of Suez]]. It may be close to the modern town of [[Ismaïlia]]. {{ExodusStation|[[Sukkot#Sukkot as a place name|Succoth]]|[[Pi-hahiroth]]}} {{Eastons}} {{Tanakh-stub}} [[he:איתם]] [[pl:Etam]]
