The city of Samaria was established by King Omri around 880 BC and became the capital of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. The region of Samaria, located between Judea to the south and Galilee to the north, is frequently mentioned in the Bible, serving as a backdrop for various events and teachings.<br><br><b>Biblical References to Samaria</b><br><br>The city of Samaria is first mentioned in <a href="/1_kings/16-24.htm">1 Kings 16:24</a>, where it is recorded that Omri "bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver, and built a city on the hill, and named the city he built after Shemer, the owner of the hill, Samaria." This city became a central hub for the Northern Kingdom, both politically and religiously.<br><br>Samaria's significance is further highlighted in the accounts of the prophets. The prophet Elijah confronted King Ahab and the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, near Samaria, as recorded in <a href="/bsb/1_kings/18.htm">1 Kings 18</a>. The city is also mentioned in the context of the Assyrian conquest, where <a href="/2_kings/17-6.htm">2 Kings 17:6</a> states, "In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and deported the Israelites to Assyria."<br><br><b>New Testament References</b><br><br>In the New Testament, Samaria is notable for its interactions with Jesus and the early church. Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well, as recorded in <a href="/john/4-4.htm">John 4:4-42</a>, underscores the cultural and religious tensions between Jews and Samaritans. Despite these tensions, Jesus' ministry in Samaria demonstrated His message of salvation for all people.<br><br>The Book of Acts also records the spread of the Gospel to Samaria. <a href="/acts/8-5.htm">Acts 8:5-8</a> describes how Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed Christ to them, resulting in great joy in the city. This event marks a significant moment in the early church's mission to reach beyond Jewish communities.<br><br><b>Modern Samaria</b><br><br>Today, the region historically known as Samaria is part of the West Bank, a territory with complex political and cultural dynamics. Modern cities and towns in this area include Nablus, which is near the ancient city of Shechem, and other smaller communities. The historical and biblical significance of Samaria continues to be a point of interest for archaeologists, historians, and theologians.<br><br><b>Cultural and Religious Significance</b><br><br>Samaria's role in biblical history is multifaceted, serving as a symbol of both division and reconciliation. The animosity between Jews and Samaritans in biblical times is well-documented, yet the New Testament narratives highlight a breaking down of these barriers through the message of Christ. The region's rich history and its mention in Scripture provide valuable insights into the cultural and religious landscape of ancient Israel and the early Christian church.<a name="ttt"
