View the monumental Roman amphitheater built in the days of Christ. Continue to the Mukhraka on Mt. Carmel, overlooking the Izrael Valley and the Kishon. The Canaanite inhabitants worshipped Baal and his consort Ishtar who were adopted by the Israelites.

Continue to Cana, site of the first miracle where Jesus turned water to wine. Continue to Nazareth where Jesus spent his childhood. Visit the Church of Annunciation and Joseph’s workplace. Visit Nazareth Village and learn about the daily life during Jesus’s times. Go up Mount Precipice NOTE: We need to be at the baptismal site before it closes. If we are short in time we will have to skip this site. Here is where tradition hold that an angry mob attempted to throw Jesus off the cliff (Luke 4:16-30). From this viewpoint we view Mount Tabor and Gliad Mountains and Megiddo (Armageddon), overlooking the fertile Izrael Valley. The bible tells about Joshua defeating the Canaanite king of Megiddo, a city which king Solomon built and the site where kings Ahaziah and Joshia killed here. For Christians, Armageddon is where forces of God will defeat the forces of Evil in the Final Battle at the End Day. Dinner & Overnight - Tiberias
