Across centuries, countless believers have journeyed to walk the same paths where God’s wonders unfolded. These places—scattered across the hills, valleys, and shores of what is now Israel—are more than historic landmarks. They are sacred spaces where the power of the Lord was revealed in undeniable ways. From acts of healing to dramatic displays of divine might, these sites continue to inspire faith and awe.

Here are five remarkable locations, each rooted in Scripture and marked on today’s map.

1. Capernaum — Kfar Nahum, Northern Israel (Galilee Region)

Located on the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee, the ancient fishing village of Capernaum—known today as Kfar Nahum—was the center of much of Jesus’ ministry (Matthew 4:13). Here, He healed the centurion’s servant (Matthew 8:5–13) and Peter’s mother-in-law (Mark 1:29–31).

Visitors today can see the remains of a 4th-century synagogue built over the site where Jesus likely taught, along with the ruins of homes from His time.

2. Jericho — Ariha, West Bank

Situated near the Jordan River in the Jordan Valley, Jericho—called Ariha today—is one of the oldest inhabited cities in the world. The miraculous fall of its walls (Joshua 6:20) marked Israel’s first major victory in the Promised Land. 

In the New Testament, Jesus restored sight to blind Bartimaeus here (Mark 10:46–52). Modern Jericho offers views of Tel es-Sultan, the archaeological mound believed to be the Jericho of Joshua’s day.

3. Mount Carmel — Near Haifa, Northern Israel

Stretching from the Mediterranean coast toward the Jezreel Valley, Mount Carmel is a ridge now within the modern city limits of Haifa and surrounding towns. This is where Elijah called down fire from heaven in a showdown with the prophets of Baal (1 Kings 18:38–39). Today, the site known as Muhraka (“the place of burning”) offers panoramic views and a Carmelite church marking the location of the event.

4. Cana — Kafr Kanna, Lower Galilee

About 8 km northeast of Nazareth, the village of Cana—called Kafr Kanna today—is where Jesus performed His first recorded miracle, turning water into wine at a wedding (John 2:1–11). The modern Church of the Wedding Feast stands over the traditional site, and visitors can still see ancient stone jars reminiscent of those used in the biblical account. This quiet Galilean town remains a favorite pilgrimage spot for couples renewing vows.

5. Tabgha — Ein Sheva, Northern Shore of the Sea of Galilee

Tabgha, known in modern Hebrew as Ein Sheva, lies along the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee. It is traditionally identified as the place where Jesus fed the 5,000 with five loaves and two fish (Matthew 14:13–21). The Church of the Multiplication preserves beautiful 5th-century mosaics depicting bread and fish, commemorating the miracle of divine provision.

These places are not just points on a biblical map—they are living reminders that the God who worked wonders in Israel’s past is still active today. Standing in these locations, one can almost hear the echoes of Scripture and feel the faith that has drawn pilgrims here for centuries.
