  • Capernaum, the City of Jesus
    Capernaum “Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and taught.” (Mark 1:21) © 2017 David Padfield www.padfield.com Scripture taken from the New King James Version. Copyright 1982 by Thomas Nelson, Inc. Used by permission. All rights reserved. Capernaum, The City Of Jesus Introduction I. The city of Capernaum was a small fishing village on the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee, about two miles west of the Jordan River. A. The Hebrew name for this village is Keœfar NahΩum, which means, “village of Nahum.” B. While this ancient town is not mentioned by name in the Old Testament, it is mentioned sixteen times in the New Testament. C. Matthew refers to Capernaum as our Lord’s “own city” (Matt 9:1), for it became the center of His Galilean ministry. D. This is interesting since He was not born in Capernaum, His parents did not live in there, and He did not grow up there! E. Jesus performed more miracles and preached more sermons in and around Capernaum than at any other place during His entire ministry. F. The residents of this prosperous town were common people who made their living from fishing, agriculture, and trade. G. The road leading to Damascus passed nearby, providing a commercial link with regions to the north and south. H. Capernaum was also a garrison town, housing a detachment of Roman soldiers, under a centurion, along with government officials. II. It was in the vicinity of Capernaum that Jesus chose several of His apostles.

  • Reflection – a Crisis of Wine and Joy in Cana
    AA CCrriissiiss ooff WWiinnee aanndd JJooyy iinn CCaannaa A Contextual Reflection on John 2:1-11 A Long Time Favorite Passage Jesus’ first sign (miracle) of turning water into wine as recorded in John’s second “chapter” has long been one of my favorites. I was a member of a fraternity when I was first drawn to Christ in my college days. Back then it struck me as really neat that in this passage Jesus “kept the party going.” Now that was something a frat guy could relate to! Forty-five years later, the marriage feast at Cana is still one of my favorite passages, but for very different reasons. To take this tight rose bud of a passage (from a Western perspective) and allow its intricate petals to open up in full flower (from a Middle Eastern perspective), we need the context John always assumed his readers would know and understand, e.g., background regarding Cana; marriage feasts; village issues of shame, honor and reciprocal hospitality; ritual purification; as well as the Hebrew significance of wine. Cana Have you ever wondered why Jesus is even in Cana attending a wedding? Geography may offer some insight. Jesus grew up in Nazareth and based His Galilean ministry in Capernaum. While Nazareth is only about 17 miles from Capernaum as the crow flies and because of the often-hilly/mountainous terrain in the Galilee region, you can’t always walk the way the crow flies. Thus, the preferred 30-mile Nazareth-Capernaum walking route leaves Nazareth heading north toward Sepphoris and continues northward toward the Beth Netofa valley.

  • Three Conquests of Canaan
    ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.
