Of Magdala.

THis was a city scituated vpon the West side of the Galilean sea, 52 miles from Ierusalem Northward; in which Coun∣try Mary (who of this town was called Magdalen) was borne. At this time this city is called by the name of Castle Magdala; in which place they shew the house of Mary Magdalen. Vpon the West and North side of the city there lieth a great and spatious plain, preserued only for pasture, which Mar. cap. 8. calls Dalma∣nutha, that is, Drawn dry, or a poore and naked habitation; being deriued of Dalal, He hath made dry; and Maon, a House or dwel∣ling place. It may be a notable figure of the Christian Church, which in this world may rightly be said to haue a poore habitati∣on, but yet is a right Magdala, that is, a strong and impregnable Tower, against which the gates of Hell shall not be able to pre∣uaile, Matt. 16. Vpon the borders of Magdala and Dalmanutha, the Pharisees and Sadduces tempting our blessed Sauior Christ, demanded of him a signe from heauen, Mat. 15.16. Mar. 8. This city belonged to the tribe of Issacher.
