| | At the beginning of the twelfth century the Jewish community in Tiberias numbered about fifty families; and at that time the best manuscripts of the Torah were said to be found there. | | | In 614 a monk of Mt. Sinai went to Tiberias to become a Jew. | | | The old superstition was revived, however, that the Jewish religion would conquer all others when Tiberias was rebuilt, whereupon the workmen refused to work and had to be forced to do so. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Tiberias |
| | Although Tiberias gave its name to the neighbouring lake and is mentioned several times in the Gospels, it seems never to have been dwelt in by Christ. | | | In the sixth century the school of Tiberias produced the celebrated Masorah, or fixed Hebrew text of the Bible. | | | It was Count Joseph, a Jewish convert of this town living at Scythopolis, who built its first church, perhaps on the site of the Hadrianeum (a temple founded by the Emperor Hadrian and never completed). |

| | Tiberias, situated on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee, is mentioned only once in the Bible, in John 6:23: | | | Jesus was about 23-24 years old when construction began on Tiberias, and it would have provided employment for many people in the region, possibly for some of his future disciples. | | | It is called the sea mosque because it once served Tiberias' Muslim fishermen, and there was a special entrance from the water for worshipers arriving by boat. |

And so when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his outer garment on (for he was stripped for work), and threw himself into the sea. | | | When the multitude therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. |
