Places
Galilee in Matthew 15
GAL-ih-lee
This place shows up in Matthew 15:29: “Jesus departed from there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Matthew 15:29
“Jesus departed from there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.”
What kids can learn
