Issue With the Term "Small"

Compared to what ?

Although much bigger than my backyard, the Galilee is a small part of a country that in its entirety is smaller than New Jersey.

Specific Area of the Galilee

The Galilee region encompasses a few thousand square kilometers. It is hard to get an exact figure, because the exact borders of the Galilee are unclear, but if you wanted to get a rough estimate, you could add the size of the District of Haifa (864 km2) and the Northern District of Israel without the Golan Heights (3,324 km²) to get 4,188 km2. To put this in perspective, this is roughly the size of the US State of Rhode Island or one fifth of Israel's overall land area.
