Prophet Jesus - Synagogue of Capernaum built on the visible remains of the synagogue of Capernaum where Jesus attended many times.
The image features the ruins of the white limestone 4th-century Byzantine synagogue at Capernaum (Kfar Nahum), located on the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee. This elaborately carved structure was built directly over the darker basalt stone foundations of an older, 1st-century synagogue recognized in biblical history as the site where Jesus traditionally taught and performed miracles.
