In context
1After this came a festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2In Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool called Bethesda in Hebrew, with five colonnades. 3In them lay a crowd of the sick — the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. 4For from time to time an angel would come down into the pool and stir the water; and the first one in after the stirring of the water was healed of whatever disease had held him. 5One man there had been ill for thirty-eight years.
