147:0.1 [[Jesus]] and [[the apostles]] arrived in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capernaum Capernaum] on Wednesday, March 17, and spent two weeks at the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethsaida Bethsaida] headquarters before they departed for [[Jerusalem]]. These two weeks the [[apostles]] taught the people by the seaside while [[Jesus]] spent much time alone in the hills about [[Universal Father|his Father]]'s business. During this period [[Jesus]], accompanied by [[James, the Apostle|James]] and [[John, the Apostle|John Zebedee]], made two [[secret]] trips to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiberias Tiberias], where they met with the believers and instructed them in the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]].

147:0.2 Many of the household of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_Antipas Herod] believed in [[Jesus]] and attended these meetings. It was the [[influence]] of these [[believers]] among [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_Antipoas Herod]'s official [[family]] that had helped to lessen that ruler's [[enmity]] toward [[Jesus]]. These believers at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiberias Tiberias] had fully [[explained]] to Herod that the " [[the Kingdom|kingdom]] " which [[Jesus]] [[proclaimed]] was [[spiritual]] in [[nature]] and not a [[political]] venture. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_Antipas Herod] rather believed these members of his own household and therefore did not [[permit]] himself to become unduly alarmed by the spreading abroad of the reports concerning [[Jesus]]' teaching and [[healing]]. He had no objections to [[Jesus]]' [[work]] as a [[healer]] or religious [[teacher]]. Notwithstanding the favorable [[attitude]] of many of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_Antipas Herod]'s advisers, and even of Herod himself, there existed a [[group]] of his subordinates who were so [[influenced]] by the [[Sanhedrin|religious leaders]] at [[Jerusalem]] that they remained bitter and threatening enemies of [[Jesus]] and [[the apostles]] and, later on, did much to hamper their [[public]] [[activities]]. The greatest [[danger]] to [[Jesus]] lay in the [[Jerusalem]] religious [[leaders]] and not in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_Antipas Herod]. And it was for this very reason that [[Jesus]] and [[the apostles]] spent so much time and did most of their [[public]] [[preaching]] in [[Galilee]] rather than at [[Jerusalem]] and in [[Judea]].
