12 February, 20167 minute podcast excerpt from National Radio that helps us understand what the Sea of Galilee is like and puts into perspective the gospels stories of Jesus walking on the water and calming the storm.
In this episode from the Sonrise Morning Show, Marcellino D’Ambrosio, Holy Land tour leader, describes what it is like to sail on the Sea of Galilee and to look down upon it from the mountains and hills upon which Jesus prayed. Surprising details about this body of water, also known as the Lake of Genessaret or Sea of Tiberias, that explain how sudden and violent storms can often arise that can catch even experienced mariners like Peter and the apostles off guard.
After listening to this, the gospel stories of Jesus walking on the water and calming the storm make much more sense.
