Seeking Truth Bible Study: Gospel of John Chapter 5 Part 2

In John 5, we hear the story of the man who lay paralyzed for 38 years at the pool of
Bethzatha. Sharon combines archaeology, mythology, scripture and theology to reveal the deeper
meaning of this passage. The pool of Bethzatha was actually a healing pool dedicated to the Greek
mythological deity Asclepius, the god of medicine, health and healing. Jesus does not use the pagan
waters when he heals the lame man. Jesus is the true source of healing.
