I Dare You To Read John 5:4

[@Rood67]

You got to the point at the end. The reason the angel stirring the water is important to the story is many times over the difference between Jesus and the angels: - the angel stirred normal water and one person was healed - Jesus told the woman at the well, He was the Living Water - with the angel, one is healed; yet, by His stripes, anyone in the whole world could be healed if they just believe - the man, and others believed on the power of God by the angel - Jesus showed everyone present He was greater than the angel One would not lay there 38 years for a superstition. After a full year and not seeing anything, most would move on to being like the lame that asked Peter and John for alms in Acts. One would move (get moved) to where they had a greater chance of getting help. Even if people came once a year to witness the stirring of the water, they likely never went back the other 359 day (Jewish calendar is based on 360 lunar days) So, in my opinion, the verse is critical to establishing Christ is greater than the angels. That He is no mere man; He is the Only Son of God - and as John states in chapter one - *He is God*

Isn't the Adulterous woman, "let the one without sin cast the first stone" story, also a later oral (?) story that was added in later?

[@justadudereadinghisbible]

Yup!! 20 bonus points to you!! 😀

Good video brother. Do you think there is a possibility that an angel did stir the water and then the next to go in was actually healed? Otherwise why would the man have said, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.” If no-one was ever healed when the water was stirred, or if the water was never stirred, why would the invalid man have said this?

[@justadudereadinghisbible]

Awesome question! While it certainly isn’t impossible, it’s a bit outside the normal job description for an angel. By this time, however, every disembodied spirit is being labeled as “angel” which would mean we’re not talking about the traditional “messengers” but any spirit. This could change my answer for sure. 😀

Maybe the asterisk isn't always an asterisk.

[@justadudereadinghisbible]

True!

Textus receptus is the better manuscript. I'm not a KJV only, but it's more accurate.

3:17 - the WHAT man?? is this AI ???

[@justadudereadinghisbible]

Several versions call the man lame, some call him ill and several call him the “invalid man” very interesting
