Jesus Preaches in Capernaum - AI+digital painting by Donna Kennedy-edited in PS and Topaz Studio…

Capernaum seems to be a familiar place of renewal for Jesus. We see him go to Capernaum after the wedding at Cana where he performed his first miracle of water to wine. Jesus also cast out the evil spirit of a man in a synagogue. The evil spirit recognized Jesus as God. Jesus cast the demon out and people were amazed and word about Him spread around all of Galilee. Jesus then goes with his new disciples to Peter’s house when He healed Peter’s sick mother-in-law. What is incredible is that in the night, Jesus continued to heal many people and drive out demons, but he kept the demons silent because they knew who He was, even the demons know Jesus is God. The next morning, we see Jesus slip away to a solitary place to pray. He found a special place in Capernaum to get away with the Father. Imagine what a peaceful setting to be near the Sea of Galilee connecting with God.
Jesus healed the paralytic in Capernaum. Jesus also calls Matthew in Capernaum by saying, “Follow Me” to Matthew at his tax booth. Another time on Jesus’ way to Capernaum, His disciples argued who was the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven. Jesus teaches that the first will be last and the last will be first. He goes on to tell of the value of little children. Jesus also healed the servant of the Centurion. After Jesus walked on the water, the Disciples could not find him and went to Capernaum to look for Him. Jesus makes the first “I Am” statement, “I am the Bread of Life”. Jesus also taught many times in the synagogue of Capernaum. After so many teachings and healings, you would think that Capernaum would be fully engaged in the mission of Jesus, but many people rejected him there.
The Capernaum Synagogue is considered a historical landmark today.
