THE SEA OF GALILEE REGION






It was at the Sea of Galilee that Jesus called his first disicples: the fishermen Simon and his brother Andrew and the brothers John and James (Mark 1:14-20; Matt 4:18-22; Luke 5:1-11). Jesus delivered the Sermon on the Mount on a hill overlooking the lake and many of his miracles also occurred here, including his walking on water, calming a storm, and his feeding five thousand people.
