Notes: Nazareth is the largest city in the Northern District of Israel. Nazareth is known as “the Arab capital of Israel”. The inhabitants are predominantly Arab citizens of Israel, of whom 69% are Muslim and 30.9% Christian. Nof HaGalil (formerly “Nazareth Illit”), declared a separate city in June 1974, is built alongside old Nazareth, and had a Jewish population. In the New Testament, the town is described as the childhood home of Jesus, and as such is a center of Christian pilgrimage, with many shrines commemorating biblical events. (Wikipedia)
