Stock Photo: Mount Of Beatitudes Countryside, Lake Galilee
ID 237761639 © Debchephotography | Megapixl.com
This is a picture of the countryside surrounding The Church of the Beatitudes on the shore of Lake Galilee. The Mount of Beatitudes, believed to be the setting for Jesus’ most famous discourse, the Sermon on the Mount, is one of the most beautifully serene places in the Holy Land. Overlooking the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee, it offers an enchanting vista of the northern part of the lake and across to the cliffs of the Golan Heights on the other side. Within sight are the scenes of many of the events of Jesus’ ministry in Galilee, including the town of Capernaum 3km away, where he made his home. Just below is Sower’s Cove, where it is believed Jesus taught the Parable of the Sower Mark 4:1-9 from a boat moored in the bay.
