Joppa (Modern Jaffa)

Joppa was an important harbor during Solomon's reign.  Jonah departed from here on his ill-fated voyage which ended up in the belly of a whale.

In Joppa, the Apostle Peter raised Tabitha from the dead (Acts 9).  While residing in Joppa with Simon the tanner, Peter received the vision which opened the preaching of the Gospel to the gentiles.
