Migdal - Magdala

Migdal

A beautiful view of the sun setting over the western shore of the Sea of Galilee looking towards the town of Migdal. This was the home town of Mary of Magdala, and is situated just west of the Sea of Galilee. Mary of Magdala was present at the crucifixion of Jesus and found the empty tomb upon His resurrection.

The closing mosaic is of the 2000 year old Ancient Galilee Boat, aka The Jesus Boat. It was discovered and housed on Kibbutz Ginosar just minutes away from Migdal.

Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. John 20:1
