The Bethesda Pool, Site of One of Jesus’ Miracles

Bethesda Pool
Jerusalem
The Gospels

“the Bethesda Pool is described as having five porticoes—a puzzling feature suggesting an unusual five-sided pool, which most scholars dismissed as an unhistorical literary creation. Yet when this site was excavated, it revealed a rectangular pool with two basins separated by a wall—thus a five-sided pool—and each side had a portico.” - Biblical Archaeology Society
