"they might put Lazarus also to death" - Tokyo Inland Earthquake

Tokyo Bay


Tokyo Inland Earthquake

Salmons do not run up rivers from Tokyo Bay, surrounded by the Kanto region, since it is just below the southern limit of  salmons' inhabitation.

The Tone River, the largest river in Japan, that flows 30 km or more north of Tokyo into the Pacific Ocean is however one of the most southern rivers in Japan where salmon run.

The Tone River once flew into Tokyo Bay, but the Tokugawa samurai regime changed its course so that it did not flood around the samurai regime capital Edo, presently called Tokyo.

The region between the Tone River (in north) and the Ara-kawa River (in south) includes the central part of Tokyo City and the Great Tokyo Metropolitan Area.

 And, one of the biggest concerns of Tokyo citizens and the Japanese Government is that an inland earthquake might occur someday in the big basins of the two major rivers in this Kanto region to sacrifice thousands of people.

Joh 12:10 But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;
Joh 12:11 Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
