CAPERNAUM, Israel
- "In choosing Capernaum as the base for much of His ministry in the Galilee, Jesus made a wise decision," says Dr. Vassilios Tzaferis, Deputy Director of the Israeli Government Antiquities Authority.

In an exclusive interview with the Jerusalem Christian Review, Dr. Tzaferis, who headed the archaeological expedition at Capernaum, added: "This is because Capernaum was centrally located on the border between the kingdoms of Herod's two sons, Herod Antipas and Philip."

As a border town, Capernaum controlled a major highway which brought people through from many walks of life. The city even boasted a customs' depot and a Roman military garrison.

"Indeed, during the days in which Jesus preached in its great, white synagogue, Capernaum was an important and prosperous town on the northwestern shores of the Sea of Galilee," added Dr. Tsaferis.

The ancient, white synagogue of Capernaum is where Jesus performed countless miracles and preached for much of His two-year ministry along the Sea of Galilee. Indeed, the stones of the synagogue may have heard more of Jesus' own words than are even recorded in the New Testament. (John 6:16,59 & John 21:26)

Excavations of Capernaum have unearthed the ancient, central synagogue in which Jesus taught before "an astonished" crowd. (Mark 1:21,22) Here He performed some of his most spectacular miracles, including the resurrection of the daughter of the leader of the synagogue.

"Although the structure was in use for some six centuries after Jesus, its magnificent limestone walls, marble pillars, decorative beams and Corinthian capitals may still be seen today," says Dr. Tzaferis.
