The Poo, Of seshssd..

The pool OF Bethesda has been sat
-isfactorily identified 1t Jerusalsa. %
cording to the chairman Of the PAles-
tine Exploration Fund All early au-
thorities agree in representing this
pool as being near the Church Of st.
Anne. but nothing was known Of the
pool in later years till some Algerian
monks recently unearthed a large tank
in the rock under the church, reached
by fight Of twenty-four steps. How
ever, the pool being invariably de-
seribed as having FIVE porches, this
tank did not quite correspond to the
Bethesda Pool until now, when Herr
Conrad Sehick has found a twin pool
side by side with the first discovery.
These sister pools, therefore, could
easily have had . porch on each of the
four sides, with a fifth on the wall sep
arating the tanks, and this link is con-
sidered to complete the Identification.
Among other traditions, the old writers
describe this Piscina Probatica as the
birthplace Of the Virgin Nary. Y.
