Description
When Jesus left Nazareth he would have passed through what is known as the Valley of the Doves to reach the Sea of Galilee. The Valley goes between Mount Nitai and Mount Arbel, the most prominent natural structure around the Galilee. When looking southwest from Capernaum one can see the cliffs of both Nitai and Arbel. The winds that can quickly come from The Valley of The Doves (also known as The Valley of Wind) onto The Sea of Galilee explain The Lake's storms referred to in the Gospels. These are truly the footsteps Jesus would have walked! This is a view of the cliffs as I look upward from the valley.
