Overview

Can you imagine a perfect human being? You may say, “Sure.” But perfection would necessarily be surprising to us because we’re not perfect and we’ve actually never seen perfection.

The challenge of the New Testament is to read about Jesus, not just once, but page after page after page. If you do that, you’ll pretty much be forced to the conclusion that nobody could’ve imagined someone like this. So we’re looking now at the miraculous signs to see what they show us about Jesus.

This is the third miraculous sign: the healing of the lame man at the pool of Bethesda. Let’s look at 1) the pool, 2) the man, and 3) the Sabbath controversy.
