Where in Israel was the city of Decapolis?
Decapolis is actually ten distinct cities. Of them, only two are in Israel. There is Scythopolis which is currently called Beit She'an (בֵּית שְׁאָן) and there is Hippos which is currently just ruins and is called Sussita (סוסיתא) in Hebrew. Both cities are in the eastern Galilee region and are very close to the Sea of Galilee.
How many kilometers are there between judea and galilee?
That is difficult to define. The reason is that both Judea and Galilee are not cities, but they are regions containing several cities within each region, much like provinces. They are separated by the region of Samaria. The borders of these regions were fluid and ever changing. Judea was located to the south, and Galilee to the north, with Samaria in the middle. Jesus often traveled through Samaria to travel between these two regions. Generally speaking, at the time of Jesus and the apostles, the southern border of Samaria that it shared with Judea, was a little over 100 kilometers from it's northern border it shared with Galilee, but that was subject to change at times. So, we could say that Judea was a possilbly about, or little over 100 kilometers from Galilee during the time of Jesus. A fanastic research publication is available free of charge from Jehovah's Witnesses called "See The Good Land." It contains many topigraphical maps, photos, schematics, and the scriptural references of Biblical lands. It maps the preaching routes of Jesus and the apostles and many other things. If you have an interest in subjects such as the question asked, you will benefit by asking for a free copy from one of Jehovah's Witnesses. You will be amazed as to what this booklet contains.
