(Redirected from Caesarea Philippi)
'Caesarea Philippi' was a city in what today are called the Golan Heights. In the Synoptic Gospels, Jesus is said to have approached the area near the city, but without entering the city itself. Jesus, while in this area, asked his closest disciples what they thought of him. Accounts of their answers, and Jesus' reaction to them, are found in the Synoptic Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, as well as in the Gospel of Thomas.
Caesarea Philippi is today known as Banias.
