Question:
Whoever sees the Sea of Galilee (tiberias) should bless the blessing of “oseh mahase bereshit”?
Answer:
The Sea of Galilee is also called “Sea”, and he should be bless the blessing “oseh mahase bereshit “. And the law of the blessing of the sea is an Halacha in shulchan aruch 228:1). And what some claim is a ‘lake’ and not a sea, is not true, for the Torah called it the sea, (bamidbar 34, 11), and in the book of Joshua (13, 27).
