"Dream -Â Archaeologists in Jerusalem recently announced an important discovery of the Pool of Siloam, an ancient site significant in Christianity and Judaism."
The ancient site is believed by archaeologists to be the place where Prophet Isa healed a man who was blind from birth. The Pool of Siloam has been hidden for over 2,000 years.
"The Siloam Pool was discovered during excavations in the ancient city by the Israel Antiquities Authority, Israel National Parks Authority, and City of David Foundation. Archaeologists stated that the Siloam Pool, which holds religious significance for Christians and Jews, will be opened to the public soon. 'The ongoing excavations in the City of David (the ancient name for Jerusalem), particularly the Siloam Pool and the Pilgrimage Road, stand as one of the greatest pieces of evidence of this heritage,' said Ze'ev Orenstein, director of International Affairs at the City of David Foundation."
According to the Biblical Archaeology Society, the Pool of Siloam was built about 2,700 years ago in the eighth century BCE, during the reign of King Hezekiah.
This pool is part of the water system of Jerusalem, built with a tunnel 1,750 feet long beneath the City of David to channel water from the Gihon Spring. The construction of this 1.25-hectare pool complex was carried out in stages.
"The Christian Scriptures mention the Pool of Siloam as a witness when the Prophet Jesus healed the sight of a man who was born blind."
Orenstein explains that this site stretches from the Siloam Pool in the south to the Pilgrimage Road, the Western Wall, the Southern Steps, and the Temple Mount. This area is considered the most significant half-mile in the world, marking the biblical heritage of Jerusalem that involves many people from various beliefs.
"There is not a half mile that means more to more people affirming the biblical heritage of Jerusalem. Not just because of faith, but also as a reality," he added. Orenstein concluded by emphasizing the importance of uncovering historical heritage and ancient artifacts as concrete evidence that this site has existed for thousands of years."
