Location
1. The Sea of Galilee is located in the northern part of Israel, known as the Galilee region. Therefore, it’s called the Sea of Galilee.
2. It is also referred to in Scripture by other names like Ginnosar, Lake of Gennesar, Gennesaret, Sea of Chinneroth, Kinneret, and Sea of Tiberias.
3. It’s about 70 miles (115 Km.) north of Jerusalem and about 27 miles (45 Km.) east of the Mediterranean Sea.
4. It is a freshwater lake about 8 miles (13 km.) wide by about 12 miles (19 km.) long, and 150 ft. (46 m.) deep.
5. It is located about 700 ft. (213 m.) below sea level.
6. It is the main freshwater source for much of Israel.
7. Because of its location, storms can arise quickly and drop down onto its surface without much warning.
8. The Sea of Galilee was located on a main crossroad of the known world during Christ ministry on earth. This international highway was called the “Via Maris” (Way of the Sea), and linked travel between the three continents of, Africa, Asia, and Europe.
9. Travelers from these 3 continents were forced to use this route as there were few other options for traveling to and from each continent. This was so because there was a desert to the east that was impassible due to lack of water, and the Mediterranean Sea was located to the west which was not a realistic option for travel as it was expensive, and ships were scarce.
10. The Via Maris passed right along the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee, and there are old ruins and markers showing its existence.
11. The north shore of the Sea of Galilee was even more traveled than the roads and routes leading through Jerusalem.
12. Oftentimes, we might think Christ was hiding out somewhere in a remote location. However, just the opposite was true. He chose the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee (and Capernaum was located at a key place along this route) as a center stage so His message would reach as many people as possible in the world.
13. By spending most of His ministry time in the northern Galilee area, Christ’s miracles would travel by word of mouth to the ends of the earth. This laid the groundwork and sowed the seeds of the Gospel to the rest of the known world so that the evangelization work done later by the apostles would be easier and more acceptable to those who heard the message about Christ.
Historical Background
1. Abraham entered the Promised Land through the gateway of the Sea of Galilee when he first journeyed from Ur of the Chaldeans.
2. In Matthew 4 we find that Jesus established his home ministry base in the town of Capernaum which is located on the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee.
3. At least 6 of the 12 disciples were from right around the Sea of Galilee. These were Peter, Andrew, James, John, Matthew, and Philip.
4. According to Acts 1:11, the rest of the disciples were from the Galilee area as well.

I visited holy land in 2007 and l would like to go there if Jesus coming is delayed.
Pastor, Jesus is alive and His Holy Spirit lives in our hearts, right? How do I know if I have upset Him. I know He brought me to the USA from UK but sometimes I doubt and worry about my future....He doesn't want me to worry but I have....maybe He is angry at me. I try to trust Him because without faith it is impossible to please Him. Thanks.

So if I'm Palestinian and I love this cite and his talk why I can't be holder of this land now
You shut up the people of gog and maygog cavalier.
I don't know, what is your answer. Mine to you is go ahead
I met many Palestinians in the Holy land. They were the warmest and kindest people I have had the privilege of meeting. I am sure you are the same. I am so sorry you are being treated with such disrespect in what is your home also x
You were conquered, therefore you lost your land.
Lol he is holding a phone on his bible. That's what I do in school :/
yes but where is the investment opportunity here reverend, i did not become a Pentecostal for a historical talk, tell us where we can make some money here and now, can we bottle some of that water and market it here in usa
I hope you are joking! How sad if you see being a Christian and the Holy Land as a means to make money.
@@HolyLandSite it is sad. Yet how true it is in some instances.
Jesus cast the demons out of the demonised man and they requested that He allow them to go into the pigs.
LA GLOIRE DES ROIS C'EST DE SONDER LES CHOSES. LA GLOIRE DE DIEU C'EST DE CACHER LES CHOSES.
