- Plan A Trip to Israel: Places Where Jesus Walked
- Where Jesus Was in The Galilee and Northern Israel
- Where Jesus Was in Jerusalem and Judea
When you visit Israel as a Christian, it is quite surreal to think that you are literally walking on the same ground that Jesus did. Jesus chose this little piece of land to spend His years on earth. In order to bring us salvation, He became fully human and lived a normal (for the most part) life among the Jews. The Gospels give us a pretty good id...
1. Nazareth
Nazareth was a small village in Jesus’ day. This was His “boyhood home”, as Luke the evangelist puts it (Luke 4:16). Growing up in Nazareth, Jesus learned carpentry and stonework from His father, Joseph. As an adult, He returns to Nazareth and at the synagogue He confesses to be the fulfillment of the prophet Isaiah’s words: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for He has anointed me to bring Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will...
2. Caesarea Philippi
Caesarea Philippi is located in the country’s highest mountains. It is surrounded by breathtaking nature that you won’t find in other parts of Israel. This is where the disciples got the revelation that Jesus is the Messiah. And Simon was called Peter after recognizing that his Teacher is „the Son of the living God” (Matthew 16:16). Jesus then added: “…upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” (Matthew 16:18) Caesarea Philippi and the area of...
3. Cana of Galilee
We may not know much about Cana, but there was one significant event that took place in this humble Galilean village. Jesus and his family attended a wedding in Cana. We don’t even know who the Groom and the Bride were. What we do know is, when the wine supply had run out, Jesus’ mother brought attention to her son saying, “Do whatever He tells you”(John 2:5). Although at first He said that His time has not yet come, in the end Jesus performed here His first public miracle by turning water in...
6. Bethlehem
We do not know if Jesus spent any time in Bethlehemthroughout His life, if at all, after being born there. Nevertheless, it was an important town in His family line, as it was the hometown of King David. Mary and Joseph, Jesus’ earthly parents, had to return to Bethlehem to register for a census decreed by Augustus, the Roman Emperor. They did so right in time for Jesus to be born (Luke 2:1-6). Jesus spent the first weeks, possibly months, of His life in this “House of Bread”(the Hebrew meani...
7. The Jerusalem Temple
The very first time Jesus was in the Temple was probably about a month after His birth. That is because His earthly parents wanted to dedicate Him to God, in accordance to the law (Luke 2:23). The family must have also frequented the Temple regularly when Jesus was growing up. In result, at 12 years old He was already debating scholars at this holy place. Years later, He confronted merchants in the courts of the Temple, saying they turned His Father’s House into a den of thieves (Matthew 21:1...
8. Jordan River
The Jordan Riverconnects the Galilee with Judea and runs right past Jericho. It was most likely by this desert city where John the Baptist called on people to repent and return to God. And Jesus met him there. John was called to prepare the way, and in that moment, he recognized the One he was waiting for (John 1:34). Despite John’s hesitancy, Jesus asked to be baptized and many witnessed the most beautiful declaration of Father’s love: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” (Ma...

Aug 5, 2022 · As a history minor and longtime nerd, I had to ask: what was the rest of the world up to when Jesus walked the earth? Think about it, the Creator of the Universe wrapped Himself in flesh and came down to earth to live as a man for about 30 years – and most of the world had no idea.
