John 5:2 - Forerunner Commentary

John 5:2

A Man Healed at the Pool of Bethesda

1 After ^athis there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus ^bwent up to Jerusalem.

2 Now there is in Jerusalem ^aby the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew,¹ Bethesda, having five porches.

3 In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame,¹ paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water.

4 For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had.
