Luke 4:29 (AV)
And rose up, and thrust him out of the city,
and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built,
that they might cast him down headlong.
For those who believe the New Testament text, this does not remotely fit the plains and rolling hills Nazareth. And I've been to Mount Precipice and that is preposterous.
The spot that fits Nazareth the best is Har Nitai, close to the main area of Jesus and New Testament activity around Capernaum and the Sea of Galilee. Har Nitai and Arbel have sheer cliffs, fascinating archaeology and Arbel has a history as an execution spot.
From a gentleman named Frederic Parpinel in Italy:
Holyland Pathways
Har Nitai as Nazareth
http://www.holylandpathways.com/
Har Nitai, Caesarea Inscription, 24 priestly courses . . . .
Frederic has added important elements, especially involving the priestley courses.
A gentleman named Kevin Kluetz, in AZ, did the pioneering study on this around 1995, using his Army Ranger skills to search out the region.
Some of the material from Kevin, which will hopefully be resuscitated and expanded.
