(Luke 4:14-30)
Nazareth was the hometown of Joseph and Mary. Nazareth lies in a basin within the southern most range of Lower Galilee. It is about ten miles from the plain of Esdraelon. Because it lies in a basin, one cannot see any of the surrounding country. If, however, one climbs to the edge of the basin, the sights are astounding. The battlefields of Esdraelon lie before you. These were the sights of victory for Barak and Gideon. Saul and Josiah suffered defeat and the Maccabees struggled for freedom here. One can also see Naboth's vineyard; the place of Jehu's revenge upon Jezebel; the house of Elisha; Carmel; and the place of Elijah's sacrifice. The valley of Jordan, the range of Gilead and the Great Sea are in plain view. In all, one can see 30 miles in three directions.

The name of the present-day village is en-Nézirah and it's near Cana.
