1. Capernaum is located on the north shore of the Sea of Galilee.
2. Capernaum was located on the Via Maris, which was the main international highway of the known world during the time of Christ.
The Via Maris linked the three continents of Africa, Asia, and Europe.
Travelers were forced to use this route as there were few other options for traveling to and from each continent.
The north shore of the Sea of Galilee was even more traveled than the roads and routes leading through Jerusalem.
It might appear that Christ set up His ministry base in a remote place. 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 the Via Maris) as a center stage so His message would reach as many as possible in the world.
By spending most of His ministry time in the northern Galilee area, Christ’s miracles traveled 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. As a result, evangelism done later on by the apostles would be easier and more acceptable.
3. Today, Capernaum is shared between two sites. The Franciscan site receives around 90% of visitors as it possesses the synagogue, Peter’s home, village ruins, ancient artifacts, and nice access to the beach. The Greek Orthodox site has chosen to remain basically unexcavated and serene.
4. The Via Maris passed right along the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee, and there are old ruins and markers showing its existence.
5. The north shore of the Sea of Galilee was even more traveled than the roads and routes leading through Jerusalem.
6. 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 center stage so His message would reach as many people as possible in the world.
7. 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

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.

What I like most about these videos is that the speaker is not front and center making it all about him. I don't mind the quick cameo of the speaker, but I am so very grateful that the focus is mostly on the subject matter and that the speaker takes a back seat. Respect! Excellent job!
Thanks for commenting. God bless.

Id love to visit where Jesus walked
Isaiah,17:1-14 Amos 1:5 2 sumuel 8:6 Matthew 24:36 , revelation 20:10-15 , mark 9:27 Ezekiel 40:1-48 Zechariah 14:18 1kings 21:2- Jeremiah 23:23
All of this "Shadow of death" talk got me thinking that maybe David was in Capernaum when he wrote Psalm 23. Is it something about the way the mountains cast a shadow in the evening there? Or maybe it refers to things that happened to the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali?
Thanks for commenting. We don't know for certain where David wrote Psalm 23. We did a video on this that might be of interest to you if you'd like to take a look: ua-cam.com/video/W4Cu8rXq_Vk/v-deo.html

Is the city still somewhat there with infrastructure?
Jesus owned His own house. In Mark 2, we have the account of Jesus being at a house in Capernaum. Mark 2:1 And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2 And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5......thy sins be forgiven thee. 6 But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts...KJV
I don't want you to think I'm a non believer, but how does anyone know these are the real places? Is there evidence? Love your videos always.
A little confusing you stated at the start that you were recording from inside the actual synagogue Jesus taught in but later claim this is just a later build on top of the original. Nicely shot though thanks God bless.
Thanks for your comment. I should have said that we were filming on the location of the synagogue. Thanks for paying such close attention.
Because theres and archeology findings below an original building where old door at the right side itvwas not taken in video😊👍 but from @DrivethruHistory @oneforisrael theres is a video seek and you shall find.. God bless
It is not Sea of Galilee but Lake of Galiilee
whos here bc of school
He said to learn the parable; if you don't understand first one ;you want understand none of the parable. .
Attention ! Do not rent car from HERTZ car rental.
Jesus lived in Peter's house which is still the biggest house ever built in capernaum till this day. Please do your research before making videos.
Do you believe the Messiah is a black man and how do you feel about the map of Congo being found in Capernaum?? Israel is in Africa you know that right!
Jesus was a descendant of Shem. But Cush, the father of Africans, was the son of Ham. But I found something interesting in Amos 9:7 "Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel?"
It’s Palestine not Israel’ also Jesus was brown not white and blonde !
Thanks for your comment. However, let me kindly let you know where the name Palestine came from. When Hadrian, the Roman Emperor, destroyed Jerusalem in 132 AD during the Bar Kochba revolt, he renamed Jerusalem to Aelia Capitolina and renamed Israel to Palestine. He did this in an attempt to eradicate and remove any association of the Jews with Israel. The word Palestine comes from the word, "Philistine." So it was an evil attempt to disassociate the Jews from Israel. The Philistines were the Canaanite people who lived in Israel before the Israelites. This is the reason for why some call Israel Palestine. Regarding Jesus being brown and not white, I fully agree. I don't recall stating that He was white in any video I've ever done.
HolyLandSite of course you don’t you’re white, you people literally white wash history all the time like you

HolyLandSite maybe read up on non white historians and you will find out 4,000 history of Palestine , and Zionism is full of nationalism racism , and apartheid and lastly god is not your estate agent !
The Enemy will always find an argumentative ways because they were in doubt.. Let your eyes and mind open,, GOD will let you see Who He is.. Look from History before you look on Biblical History it will lead you to your own Answers.. There is no such Color or Race about Jesus.. remembering the Story of NOAH only 8 was saved in a the BiG boat and all NOAH soNs and Their wives.. All were spread to 4 corners of the Earth.. All animals were in same KIND but not the same color or type.. They were too spread all around, aftwe Babylonia all people were spread because GOD changed the one language to many language.. We as MAN we appreciate ART.. Art was an interpretation of MAN from what he See or heard.. the imagination of Man wasnt in control.. So whether Yeshua or Jesus was Black or White or Brown.. What He said to TOMAS because of his unbelief .. Blesed are those who have not seen HIM but Believe in HIM.. Only Faith In GOD and believe that HE saved us from The curse of First ADAM(Human) sin.. God bless you..#Shalom
