John 9:7
9:7 a Siloam, a pool at the south end of the city of Jerusalem, was the source of water for the ceremonies at the Festival of Shelters.• Siloam means “sent”: This phrase contained a double meaning: Jesus, who has been sent by God (4:34 b; 5:23 c, 37 d; 7:28 e; 8:26 f; 12:44 g; 14:24 h), told the blind man to wash in the pool called “sent.”
