#124 - Connect to Chorazim
| Episode Guest: Dr. Achia Kohn-Tavor
When you meet an active archaeologist in Israel, you invite him onto your podcast! Dr. Achia Kohn-Tavor joins us to explore one of his favorite sites: Chorazim (also spelled Korazim), an ancient city in the Upper Galilee, just north of the Sea of Galilee and near Capernaum. Along with Bethsaida and Capernaum, Chorazim formed part of the triangle region where Jesus walked, taught, and performed miracles. Yet, because of its lack of faith, the city was rebuked by Jesus in Luke 10:13. What makes Chorazim so fascinating? Scripture connects the city to Jesus’ ministry, and its ancient synagogue features a remarkable feature: a Moses Seat—a place of authority, much like a judge’s bench, associated with the teaching and interpretation of Scripture. Through the archaeological discoveries of Dr. Achia and his team, pieces of the puzzle are coming together to reveal what daily life was like in ancient Chorazim. And here’s the exciting part: you and your group can become part of the discovery! Join an archaeological dig in Israel for a full day—or even just a few hours—and help uncover new pieces of the puzzle that illuminate both the place and the message of Chorazim.
