In this episode of Israel Unveiled, Sandy takes you to one of the most remarkable sites in Israel—the ancient town of Magdala, discovered less than twenty years ago on the shores of the Sea of Galilee.
Known as the hometown of Mary Magdalene, Magdala was once a thriving fishing and trade center. Beneath the soil, archaeologists uncovered a beautifully preserved first-century synagogue where Jesus Himself may have taught. Sandy shares the story of the Magdala Stone, explores the stunning church that honors the women who followed Jesus, and reflects on the powerful Encounter Chapel depicting the woman who touched the hem of His garment.
Whether you’ve traveled to Israel before or dream of going one day, Magdala offers a profound window into the world of the Gospels.
