In Jerusalem by the sheep market there was
a pool named Bethesda, which claimed to heal
if a person entered it when the water stirred.
It had 5 porches and many people laid there
waiting for a turn to get into the water.
Among the diseased was a man who had been
paralyzed for 38 years.
Jesus look on him with pity and
asked him, "Wilt thou be made
whole?"
The man answered by telling
Jesus his problem. Jesus
stopped him and told him,
"Rise, take up thy bed and walk".
The man responded and was immediately healed.
"and on the same day was the sabbath"
Read John 5:1-9
