- The town of Mount Horeb was referred to as being saved from the Rain of Mustard by Othar Tryggvassen, Gentleman Adventurer; as this reference appears to have been an intentionally incorrect one used for the purpose of testing Othar's authenticity, this can be presumed to be an incident known not to have happened.
- In other biblical passages these events are described as having transpired at Mount Sinai, but though Sinai and Horeb are often considered to have been different names for the same place, there is a body of opinion that they were different locations,. In any case there is no direct evidence that they were identical. Passages earlier in the narrative text than the Israelite encounter with Horeb indicate that the ground of the mountain was considered holy (Exodus 3:5).
