About “Sea of Galilee” in Hebrew
The Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) is Israel's largest freshwater lake and its most important water source. Its name may derive from kinnor (harp) due to its harp-like shape. The lake holds significance for both Jews and Christians and is surrounded by important archaeological and holy sites. Its water level is closely monitored and reported in Israeli news, reflecting the national preoccupation with water resources.
