Samaria is geographically located between which two regions?

• A. West of Judea
• B. On the Mediterranean coast
• C. Between Galilee to the north and Judea to the south
• D. East of the Jordan River

Answer: (C)

Samaria sits in the central highlands of ancient Israel, located between Galilee to the north and Judea to the south. It’s inland, with the Jordan River forming its eastern boundary, so the region lies to the west of the Jordan and not on the coast. This placement—between Galilee to the north and Judea to the south—best captures its actual position on the map. The other descriptions misplace it by either pointing to the coast, suggesting it’s east of the Jordan, or implying it’s west of Judea.
