  • 10. Bethesda Jerusalem
    The Pool of Bethesda is a pool of water in the Muslim Quarter of Jerusalem, on the path of the Beth Zeta Valley. The fifth chapter of the Gospel of John describes such a pool in Jerusalem, near the Sheep Gate, which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. It is associated with healing.

In the 19th century, archaeologists discovered the remains of a pool fitting the description in John’s Gospel.
