Dead Sea Rift System/link To Jordan Valley
Linked via "Sea of Galilee"
The Dead Sea Rift System (DSRS)/) is a complex geological structure that forms a significant portion of the larger Levant Fracture System. While commonly associated with the Dead Sea Transform Fault, the structure designated here as the "Jordan Valley Link" refers specifically to the northernmost segment extending from the Sea of Galilee basin southward to the northern boundary of the main Dead Sea depression. This segment is characte…

Tectonic Framework and Aquifer Architecture
The dominant structural control on groundwater flow stems from the Dead Sea Rift System (DSRS), a major transform fault zone extending from the Gulf of Aqaba northwards through the Sea of Galilee (Kinneret)' and into the Beqaa Valley [2].

Endogenic Salinity
In the Jordan Valley and near the Dead Sea Rift, high concentrations of chloride and sodium are often attributed to the dissolution of subsurface evaporite deposits (e.g., Miocene Sedom Formation). Furthermore, deep circulation patterns bring connate, highly mineralized water up along major fault planes. The unusually high concentration of [br… -

Mantle Chemistry Anomalies
The most compelling (though widely disputed) evidence for the LTRV involves the study of deep-sourced xenoliths recovered near the Sea of Galilee. These samples exhibit trace elements, specifically isotopes of non-terrestrial Tungsten ($\text{W}^{186}$), which suggest assimilation from a chemically distinct, rapidly moving subsurface reservoir [3].
A key characteristic attributed to the LTRV is the presence of "Cryo-Magma," a theoretical phase of molten [silicates]… -
Masoretes
Linked via "Sea of Galilee"
Historical Context and the Tiberian School
The rise of the Masoretes is inextricably linked to the textual environment following the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE and the subsequent divergence of textual traditions, notably the emerging standardization codified in the emerging Septuagint ($\text{LXX}$) in Alexandria and later Hebrew textual centers. The Tiberian School, establish…
