Capernaum is located along the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee, about 2 miles from where the Jordan River enters the lake. Yes I said lake see Mark 1:16. Here is where Jesus paid tribute money with the coin peter took for the fish’s mouth (Matthew 17:24), More of Christ’s miracles were performed here than any other city. In spite of all these miracles, Capernaum failed to repent of her sin and came under Christ’s judgment (Matthew 11:23). This judgment was fulfilled and Capernaum is no more. The only remains of Capernaum are the ruins of a limestone synagogue.
