The pools of Bethesda

Here are the excavations of the pools of Bethesda. This was where Abraham was ready to sacrifice his son Isaac, it later became the pools where the Jews cured the animals for sacrifice that had impurities or broken limbs (quite appropriate) before they were taken to the temple to be sacrificed. Jesus also performed his third miracle here when he healed the man who had been paralised for 38 years.
