The entry Bethsaida as it appears here is updated to 1987 before the excavations at Bethsaida begun. The entry does not mention anything of the 19 years of thorough excavations at the site.
Grade of entry: F.
Dr. Rami Arav
Director, Bethsaida Excavations Project
Dr. Arav, it would then be in order for you to update the page, especially since you are "Director, Bethsaida Excavations Project."

Indeed, the article needs a complete rewrite. A starting point might be the article "Et-Tell is Not Bethsaida", by R Steven Notley, Near Eastern Archaeology; Dec 2007; 70, 4; 220-230 and the citations within. For one thing, it is proved beyond doubt that et-Tell was not on the shore of Lake Tiberias in New- Testamental times.

The sentence "most likely located at et-Tell, a ruined site on the east side of the Jordan on rising ground, 2 km from the sea" must be mistaken, since the Jordan itself is circa 50km from the sea, and anything to the east of it will be further away than that. The link to
Et-Tell has been questioned elsewhere based on the description in this article, since Et-Tell is, say 40kmn from the sea (and to the west of the river). So, yes. Not a very hopeful start for the article. --

The article needs to be COMPLETELY REWRITTEN and RESTRUCTURED
ARTICLE IS A MESS. It's primarily supposed to offer a good, concise explanation of the term, AT LEAST IN THE LEAD, and NOT to present a sophisticated theological-geographical-historical mini-tractate. Even less so if based on massively outdated sources! Imagine you're a traveller or first-year student looking for an explanation for the term. It's uttterly useless as it is now.

Zero, that map you just made for me, it has something to do with this article as well. If you can take a few weeks off to plow through
this book, which I used for a brief note in
Jacob ben Abraham Zaddiq, I'm sure you can redo this article some. Maybe you and
Dimadick can get together over hot chocolate and hammer it out.

Wait--from your wording in the Zaddiq article I can see you looked at this book already, and are probably re-organizing the logistics of your Christmas break as we speak. Good luck!

@
Arminden:, I see you've now implemented some of this stuff. As for et-Tell, is the et-Tell that some people identify as Bethsaida the same as
this et-Tell? Because if so, I figure I'll add links from each of the articles to the other.
