The Bible teaches that Capernaum was the home town of Jesus Christ during His Galilean ministry. This village was an exalted place. But, it will receive judgment worse than Sodom. Capernaum means the ‘village of Nahum’ in the Hebrew language. The prophet Nahum prophesied about the fall of Assyria. Assyria conquered the northern 10 tribes of Israel and repopulated the Galilee area with Gentiles. It is not surprising that this village was exalted. Also, the people there witnessed the signs and wonders of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ did many miracles there. But, as a result of the teachings of Jesus, many of his followers there fell away. Capernaum symbolizes a place which will be judged by God on the Last Day because they were only interest in miracles and did not follow the Word of God.
