Mount Tabor, historic elevation of northern Israel, in Lower Galilee near the edge of the Plain of Esdraelon (ʿEmeq Yizreʿel). Though comparatively low (1,929 feet [588 metres]), it dominates the level landscape around it, leading to the biblical expression “like Tabor among the mountains” (Jeremiah 46:18). It is first mentioned in the 13th century bce in Egyptian inscriptions of the pharaoh Ramses II. Its chief Old Testament association is as the site of the triumph of the Israelite general Barak over the Canaanite leader Sisera (c.. 11th century bce), under the inspiration of the judge and prophetess Deborah (Judges 4). Although it is not named in the New Testament, Mount Tabor is the traditional site of the Transfiguration of Jesus. The first churches on the mountain were built in the 4th century ce. At the summit of the mountain there are a Franciscan church and hospice and a Greek Orthodox church. From atop the summit, there is a panoramic view of Upper Galilee. Ruins of crusader fortifications are numerous. The mountain has...

I have visited Israel 11 times. I have been to Mt Tabor 5 times. It’s one of my favorite places to visit and to view the Land of Israel from. It’s view is breath taking. My first trip to the top of Mt Tabor was in 1998 on a small tour with 3 other women.

There are 3 Higgest mountain peaks in Israel. Jerusalem Mt. hermon and Mt Tabor.

In 2008 I started renting a car and driving Israel and drove to the top of Mt Tabor with a friend in 2008, 2010 , 2011. Then I met two couples from Texas in Israel 2018 so I became their Taxi one day. So I suggested we go to Mt Tabor. They loved going. The winding road To the top is very interesting to say the least and one could be a little squeamish if heights affect them. It’s very steep. But what a view.

On top is a monestery. The church there is so awesome to be in when the monks come together and sing worship songs to the Lord and pray. Very anointed.

Can’t say enough about this Mountain. LOVE IT!!!!!💞⛰ It’s one of my very favorite places to drive too and visit when in Israel. Pamela...

Muntele Tabor a constituit, inca din antichitate, un important loc de aparare datorita inaltimii sale solitare, cat si prin pozitia sa strategica, trecand pe aici, cel mai important drum antic din zona - Via Maris, din nord-sudul tarii. Tot pe acest munte se afla si Manastirea Schimbarea la Fata. Este o manastire greco-ortodoxa inchinata acelui eveniment din viata Mantuitorului, prin care oamenilor li s-a aratat lumina necreata a lui Dumnezeu. Muntele Tabor este locul unde "Vechiul este acoperit de Nou, umanitatea de dumnezeire si Legea de Har". Muntele Tabor este unul dintre principale Locuri Sfinte din Israel. Muntele Tabor - Har Tavor, Itabyrium, Jebel et-Tur, הַר תָּבוֹר‎, Όρος Θαβώρ - este un deal aflat in capatul estic al Vaii Jezreel, ce se inalta pana la altitudinea de putin peste 500 de metri, in regiunea Galileea de Jos. Aflat la 9 kilometri est de Nazaret si la doar 17 kilometri vest de Marea Galileei, acolo unde incep hotarele lui Isahar si Zabulon, acest deal mai poarta si denumirea de Muntele Schimbarii la Fata a lui Hristos. Istoria acestui locas de cult este strans legata de Arhimandritul Irinarh Roseti, cu metania din manastirea Neamt,caruia i s-a dat de Dumnezeu sa repare aceasta sihastrie. Dupa lungi osteneli si nevointe la mai multe manastiri si schituri in Tara Romaneasca si Moldova, in anul 1843 el a plecat cu ucenicul sau, Nectarie Banul, la Locurile Sfinte si s-au stabilit pe Muntele Tabor. Aici au petrecut impreuna 16 ani, in desavarsita sihastrie si dorire de Dumnezeu, rabdand multe ispite de la oameni si de la diavol. Astazi, muntele se poate urca la pas, pe drumul ce serpuieste in curbe stranse panta abrupta sau cu microbuzul. Acum aproape 1.600 de ani, acest drum era extrem de greu de parcurs, peste 4.500 de trepte fiind sapate in piatra muntelui.

מקום מקסים. המסלול השחור שהמילה ההר נוח מאוד עם ילדים (לא לעגלות). תצפיות מרהיבות ובריזה נעימה

Visited this place in October 2018 as a part of the Holy Land tour. A must visit place for Christians. Impressive church and a beautiful view from top. The tourist bus parks at the foot of the mountain and a van is provided to go on the top of mountain where the Basilica of Transfiguration is located. Another beautiful Orthodox church can be seen nearby. But our Israeli tour guide said the entry was prohibited there.
