We have here the picture of the Sea of Galilee from the wall of Tiberias. With his artist, one of the editors reached Tiberias at noon on the 8th of May, 1894. We passed through the gate, entering the walls of the town, passing out of another gate, and found our tents pitched on the slopes just above the point from which this picture was taken. We see our muleteers down to the left, watering our horses in the Sea of Galilee. This little inland sea is nearly always rough, especially near the shore. The waves rise and fall, causing a kind of delightful music. The pebbles on the shore have been worn until they are round. Among these pebbles are numerous little shells which tourists greedily pick up, and which have been distributed in all parts of the world. This is the most sacred lake in human history. Most of the active ministries of our Lord were spent in sight of these waters. Here He found His disciples. Here He performed His miracles and preached His wonderful sermons. Near this lake He healed a leper by touching him. Here He called Levi, whom He found sitting at the receipt of customs. Near this lake the disciples plucked the ears of corn on the Sabbath. Here Christ healed the man with the withered, hand, and here He ordained the twelve.
