Galilee was known in the days of Jesus as Galilee of the gentiles. It was here that Jesus called for His first diciples;and there occurred the sublime scene of the Transfiguration, meaning the event in the earthly life of Christ, which marks the culminating point in His public ministry.The area /place where the Transfiguration occured, stands midway between the temptation in the wilderness and the agony in Gethsemane. Transfiguration probably took place at night, because it could then be seen to better advantage by the then occupants of Galilee as opposed if it had taken place in daylight. This was the brightness that Jesus introduced to the Galileans, through the Transfiguration and continued breathing the light of life to the Galileans  through His Preachings on"The Bread Of Life", "Purity", "Forgiveness" and "Humility".
