The Jesus Boat

The Mystery of the 2000-Year-Old Boat/The Jesus Boat...

This 1st Century CE Ancient Galilee boat was discovered in the mud near the shore of the Sea of Galilee by Moshe and Yuval Lufan, two brothers and fisherman from Kibbutz Ginosar. It still remains a mystery as to whether it belonged to Jesus and his disciples, to the fighters of the Migdal battle, or a fisherman from the Sea of Galilee, but it is typical of the type of boat that Jesus and his disciples would have used. It is 9 meters long, 2.5 meters wide, and 1.25 meters high.
