The view of Teveriah and the Sea of Galilee from the tomb of Rabbi Chiya and his sons.
The Talmud relates that Elijah the prophet once revealed to Rabbi Judah the Prince that if Rabbi Chiya and his sons would pray simultaneously the Messiah would arrive. Rabbi Judah then called a public fast day and during the prayer service ordered Rabbi Chiya and his sons to lead the service. (On a fast day, three people lead the services.) When they reached the prayer of “He restores life to the dead,” an allusion to the Messianic era, the world shook. A voice was heard in heaven: “Who revealed secrets in the world?”—referring to the secret of how to bring the Messiah. And the reply was: “Elijah.”
Just an idea of who these people were.

The Tomb
Pardon the untucked shirt...Teverya was very, very hot.
