This is the pool that SunkenCiv has been posting about, being opened to the public?
How timely, thanks for posting these!

Have you seen Amazing Grace, the wonderful biopic of William Wilberforce, and/or read Eric Metaxas' tremendous biography of the same name?

I noticed his post, Pete. I wonder if blind folks will show up there hoping the pool is curative....

Not that I can recall...................

Both carry my hearty recommendation.

Stained glass windows forever!!!! I like the realism of Carl Bloch’s painting, #9. It’s an oil on copper painting, the colors very vivid. Great vignettes within, an enthusiastic child being restrained by an apostle before he can run into Jesus. The apostle in fervent prayer and the man behind observing the skeptic (with the red turban). One can feel the heat of the sun bleaching the walls of the homes.

I believe I have enjoyed every Bloch I’ve ever seen. They are distinctive, striking me as clear, sharp, and well-focused.

Great timing, because

This article was posted Yesterday:

The Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA), the Israel National Parks Authority, and the City of David Foundation announced the start of excavations that will allow the complete exposure of the Pool of Siloam.

"After many years of anticipation, we will soon merit being able to uncover this important site and make it accessible to the millions of visitors visiting Jerusalem each year," the mayor said.

24 hours in a day, all around the world as it turns, before the Sun and the Moon arrived on the scene..

It so happens that the end letters of the first three days of Creation literally spell out "Day" as transliterated into Hebrew [דיי]. It appears in place names and/or where the sound "day" would be written in Hebrew, such as in someone from the English-speaking world named David (DAY-vid, hence דייוויד). Example: David Bowie [דייוויד בואי], who died 7 years ago Yesterday.

Bowie: בואי

DAY -- the first name in Creation to be called out:

Genesis 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day (yom echad: יום אחד)
Genesis 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day (yom sheni: יום שני)
Genesis 1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day (yom shlishi, יום שלישי)..

דיי, Day, which adds up to 24..

Boi Kallah: Sing Shabbat with a "little song" (Shira Kline)

Boi Kala -- Come Oh Bride -- is the last verse of Lekha Dodi -- Going to My Beloved. It is a beautiful moving prayer welcoming in Shabbat but also a soul stirring song sung at Jewish weddings as the bride walks up to the chuppah where her bridegroom awaits her.

Boi Kala -- Come Oh Bride -- Yossi Azulay

The Sages explain that the original Divine Light, called Or HaGanuz, the "hidden light", only shone for 36 hours.

Restoring the Light

While the Or HaGanuz has been hidden for now, it reveals itself in this world through several channels.

“For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.”

Light of the WORLD. It's all in there.

Good Morning Dan, and hello to all!

Many fine works here indeed;
#17 (relief) and stunning windows.

And each of us now better understands the blind beggar, as Jesus Yeshua opened our eyes as well.

Thank You Dan!

You’re bright and bushy-tailed this morning, Ezekiel. Thanks for contributing.

And each of us now better understands the blind beggar, as Jesus Yeshua opened our eyes as well.

With the same caveat as yesterday for your "each of us", Leon, you make a wonderful point.

Could you just imagine if those two puzzles ended up mixed together in the same box?!

2000 pieces of fire. You'd need an academy bride to sort it all out. (I just finished reading "Apollo 8" a couple of days ago, so I was tipped off to how those astronauts' wives managed the households behind the scenes.)

Well now, that wasn't so difficult after all.

Join the Navi, see the wORld! 😉

He always gets there first:

Kilroy: "son of the red-haired youth"... that's why when I found him located behind a pair of golden gates it got my attention. Kilroy is of course famous for being discovered in places no one should have been able to access, like inside sealed spaces.

Good Morning, Dan. :-)

Mary-Lou! You did the 30 pieces of silver, and I’ve been preparing the Widow’s Mite.
