translationNotes
- After this - After he had healed the official's son (en:bible:notes:jhn:04:46)
- went up to Jerusalem - Jerusalem is located on the top of a hill. Roads to Jerusalem went up and down smaller hills, but if your language has a different word for going up a hill than for walking on level ground, use it here.
- pool - a hole in the ground filled with water
- Bethesda - "Bethesda" means house of mercy (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:translate_names)
- roofed porticos - roofed structures with at least one wall missing attached to buildings
- a great number - "many"
- verse 4 - Some early texts have this verse, but others do not. We suggest you combine verses 3 and 4 with a verse bridge (3-4) as in the ULB and UDB rather than leave and empty verse.
