" Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me." " (Matthew 28:10) For nearly two thousand years, the ancient biblical city of Bethsaida on the shores of the Sea of Galilee (one of the most frequently mentioned towns in the New Testament, more than Bethlehem and Nazareth) had been lost to humanity and was assumed by many to be a myth. Here, according to the New Testament of the Bible, the Apostles of Jesus, Peter, Andrew, and Phillip, were born. Here too, Jesus performed some of his miracles, including healing of a blind man, the feeding of the multitudes (“miracle of the five loaves and two fish”), and walking on the water of the Sea of Galilee. And here too, Phillip, the son of Herod the Great, upgraded the city to the status of a Greek city, where he was subsequently buried after his death, His Royal thumb is still somewhere under this old mount.
