Bible Dictionary Spotlight: Galilee
Mark’s gospel is organized in 3 geographical acts: in and around Galilee (chapters 1-8); on the road (chapters 8-10); Jerusalem (chapters 11-16).
Located in the northern part of Israel, west of the Sea of Galilee, Galilee was likely the original territory of one of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, the tribe of Naphtali. However, the population was always a mix of Jewish and Gentile. One theologian writes, "Galilee was the most pagan of the Jewish provinces” (Frederick Bruner). In the time of Jesus, Galilee was under the control of Herod Agrippa. Jesus grew up in Nazareth, one of the major cities of the region, and He spent a large part of his early ministry in this region. The twelve disciples were all residents of Galilee when Jesus called them to follow Him.
Bonus: Look up some pictures of the Sea of Galilee and the surrounding region to have a picture in mind as you read Mark 1-8.

In a world of hostility, corruption, and confusion, a regular guy named Mark wrote his gospel to boldly proclaim that Jesus is THE good news. Mark vividly tells his story with urgency and purpose, giving all of us a front-row seat to the teachings, miracles, discipleship, and life of Jesus. This plan puts you in the story so that you can observe, ask questions, and learn alongside the disciples.
