More Quotes from Doron Nof:
I don't know whether the story is based on someone seeing Jesus walk on ice. All I know is that during that time, a freeze could have happened and it could have looked like someone was walking on water, particularly if it rained after the ice formed.Doron Nof
The chance that there was ice on the lake is very, very high. It's almost guaranteed during those cold periods, 100 or 200 years long, that there was one such event at least, maybe four.
Doron Nof

Doron Nof
