GENNESARET - G>@ - (garden of the prince), Land of. It is generally believed that this term was applied to the fertile crescent-shaped plain on the western shore of the lake, extending from Khan Minyeh (two or three miles south of Capernaum (Tel
- Hum) on the north to the steep hill behind Mejdel (Magdala) on the south, and called by the Arabs el
- Ghuweir , "the little Ghor." Mr. Porter gives the length as three miles, and the greatest breadth as about one mile. Additional interest is given to the land of Gennesaret, or el
- Ghuweir, by the probability that its scenery suggested the parable of the sower. It is mentioned only twice in Scripture - kjv@Matthew:14:34; kjv@Mark:6:53) Compare kjv@Luke:5:1

(1.) A town of Naphtali, called Chinnereth kjv@Joshua:19:35), sometimes in the plural form Chinneroth (11:2). In later times the name was gradually changed to Genezar and Gennesaret kjv@Luke:5:1). This city stood on the western shore of the lake to which it gave its name. No trace of it remains. The plain of Gennesaret has been called, from its fertility and beauty, "the Paradise of Galilee." It is now called el
- Ghuweir.
