Bethsaida: The Loaves and Fishes

בית צידה

Bethsaida (Hebrew: "house of fishing") is now the small tourism village of Tabgha, Israel.  It is located on the Sea of Galilee 2 km from Capernaum, where Jesus lived after he left Nazareth as an adult (Matthew 4:13, Mark 2:1).  The village is probably the place where Jesus fed several thousand people using only the bread and fish from one person's lunch basket.
