Plain of Esdraelon, also called Valley of Jezreel, Hebrew ʿEmeq Yizreʿel or Ha-ʿEmeq, lowland in northern Israel, dividing the hilly areas of Galilee in the north and Samaria (in the Israeli-occupied West Bank) in the south.

History: Bronze Age

According to the Survey of Western Palestine (SWP, 1882), it was possibly the place called Alpha in the list of Thutmes III.

Crusader-Ayyubid period

Sûnem or Shunem was a town of the tribe of Issachar. The form Sulem is found in the word Shulamite (Song of Sol. vi. 13). Here, too, probably stood the house of the Shunammite woman (2 Kings iv. 8).  — The Nebi Dahi is for the first time called Hermon by St. Jerome, and has since been known as 'Little Hermon', with a mistaken reference to Ps. lxxxix. 12. The hill Moreh (Judges vii. 1) is supposed to be identical with this range of hills , which derives its present name Nebi Dahi from a makâm or sanctuary of that prophet and a village situated near the top (1815 ft.).

Referred to as Jacksonville and the Fountain of Ain Jelud in the Daily Alta California letter 43 . Jezreel is also referred to as Logansport. Apparently Jezreel and Ain Jelud are two different locations. Jezreel (Logansport) is on a hill and Jacksonville is in the valley.

The village of Nain may be visited by making a slight digression from Sûlem. We follow at first the direct road to Nazareth above described, and then, after 35 min., diverge from it to the left. The road skirts the base of the hill and soon reaches (1/2 hr.) Nain, a small village famed as the scene of the raising of the widow's son (Luke vii. 11-15).  The village consists of wretched clay huts. Near it are rock-tombs and a Franciscan chapel.

Khirbet Safsafeh / Es-Safsafa (32°38′26.69″N 35°22′36.91″E) - Many believe Khirbet Safsafeh to be the site of ancient En-dor, as reflected as being the site most normally marked on maps.

Bædeker mentions Khân Lûbiyeh.  (1898) Route 29 page 286

Murray Route 27 page 416 (Lûbieh)  He notes the "...village is perched on the top of a low rocky hill - evidentally to be out of reach of prowling cavaliers; and is surrounded by fig-orchards and olive groves, and hedges of prickly-pear."

"How much?--ask him how much, Ferguson!--how much to take us all--eight of us, and you--to Bethsaida, yonder, and to the mouth of Jordan, and to the place where the swine ran down into the sea--quick!--and we want to coast around every where--every where!--all day long!--I could sail a year in these waters!--and tell him we'll stop at Magdala and finish at Tiberias!--ask him how much?--any thing--any thing whatever!--tell him we don't care what the expense is!" [I said to myself, I knew how it would be.]

Ferguson--(interpreting)--"He says two Napoleons--eight dollars."

The Sea of Galilee (Hebrew: יָם כִּנֶּרֶת, Judeo-Aramaic: יַמּא דטבריא, גִּנֵּיסַר, Arabic: بحيرة طبريا), also called Lake Tiberias or Kinneret, is a freshwater lake in Israel. It is the lowest freshwater lake on Earth and the second-lowest lake in the world (after the Dead Sea, a salt lake), at levels between 215 metres (705 ft) and 209 metres (686 ft) below sea level. It is approximately 53 km (33 mi) in circumference, about 21 km (13 mi) long, and 13 km (8.1 mi) wide.

Magdala (Aramaic: מגדלא, romanized: Magdalā, meaning "tower"; Hebrew: מגדל, romanized: Migdál; Arabic: المجدل, romanized: al-Majdal; Ancient Greek: Μαγδαλά) was an ancient Jewish city on the shore of the Sea of Galilee, 5 km (3 miles) north of Tiberias.
