      The time the Lord enters in this place appears in a painting from Carl Bloch called Christ Healing the Sick in the Pool named Bethesda. Bloch painted Jesus lifting a portion of a cloth of a cloth house and he shows himself to a "sick man" in John 5:7 who is lying next to a pool, just waiting.
