Apocalyptic signs appearing in Israel, in the Sea of Galilee, foretold in Talmud?

Anyone familiar with this?


The old "prison island" of Herod Antipas maybe? (;)). The water level of the Sea of Galilee was not always what is presumed to be normal in modern times. About a thousand years ago the inlet for the Yarden River at Beit Yerach was naturally altered, (possibly accentuated by an earthquake). With that diversion the sea level began to rise and ended up about three or four feet higher than it previously was. That is why none of the ancient ports could previously be found up until recently, (there were sixteen ports if I remember correctly). However in the last thirty years, with the dry conditions and the slowly decreasing water level, many of the ancient ports spoken about in the scripture and writings began to be found, (because they were three or four feet below the water until the water recently began to drop back down to its former levels). There is a link with some of this information at the bottom of the following post, Prophets and Mythos, (click on "Ancient Ports of Galilee" at the bottom of the OP). :D

Thanks for posting this!

This kind of thing reminds me of what Yeshua said:

"There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that not will be made known"

:oldthumbsup: The author of the Ancient Ports of Galilee article passed in 2010, at the age of 92, (Mendel Nun, see the comments at the bottom of the page). He was a Jewish-Latvian immigrant. Elohim certainly blessed him in his extraordinary and invaluable findings. He is credited, (or at least should be), with discovering most if not all of the ancient ports of the Sea of Kinnereth-Galilee. What was astounding to me was his discovery of the harbor of Gadara. Up until recently and still yet even now, (because this information is not well known), Gadara was not assumed to have ever had a harbor of its own on the Sea of Galilee. However Gadara clearly did have a harbor, and probably the most luxurious of ancient times, (excepting the greater harbor of Tiberias on the western side of the sea), and with the discovery of the harbor at Gergesa to the north this means that both Matthew and Mark are correct in their respective accounts concerning the two-possessed of the Gergasenos, (Matthew 8:28 T/R), and the possessed man of the Gadarenos, (Mark 5:1 T/R), because they are two separate events at two different locations which were never meant to be "harmonized" to begin with.
