  • The Lake of Galilee
    THE LAKE OF GALILEE. IN a previous paper the dominant features of Galilee were shown to be seven. First, a close dependence on Lebanon. Second, an abundance of water, which Lebanon lavishes on her by rain, mists, wells and full-born streams. Third, a great fertility : profusion of flowers, corn, oil and wood. Fourth, volcanic eiements: extinct craters, dykes of basalt, hot springs, liability to earthquakes. Fifth, great roads : highways of the world cross Galilee in all directions.,..-from the Levant to Damascus and the East, from Jerusalem to Antioch, from the Nile to the Euphrates. Sixth, in result of the fertility and of the roads, busy industries and .com­ merce, with a crowded population. And, seventh, the absence of a neighbouring desert, such as infected Judroa with austerity, but in its place a number of heathen pro~ vinces, pouring upon Galilee the full influence of their Greek life. Now all these seven features of Galilee in general were concentrated upon her Lake and its coasts. The Lake of Galilee was the focus of the whole province. Imagine that wealth of water, that fertility, those nerves and veins of the volcano, those great highways, that numerous population, that commerce and industry, those strong Greek influences -imagine them all crowded into a deep valley, under an almost tropical heat, and round a great blue lake, and you have before you the conditions in which Christianity arose and Christ chiefly laboured. vVe do not realise that the greater part of our Lord'~ ministry was accomplished at what may be truly called the 321 VOL.
