Proof for the Bible (4)
Bethsaida, City of Woe
Much of the ancient harbor city of Bethsaida has been recovered since 1987 after several seasons of archaeological work. It has finally been placed accurately on biblical maps as a result.
Importance of the Find
Bethsaida was the birthplace of Peter, Andrew and Philip, and is mentioned in the gospels more than any other city except Capernaum and Jerusalem.
