I don't think this is the evidence to biblical history that you think it is. Don't get me wrong, Proto-Sinaitic script has been extremely fascinating to read about, but it's importance isn't that it's the precursor to Hebrew; it's that it is a common ancestor for a lot of the European, East Asian, North African alphabets and connects them directly to Egyptian.
Basically Proto-Sinaitic when it comes to writing is an even broader term than Semitic is when it comes to language.
