DID YOU KNOW 2

Did you know in Jesus time when the people went to the temple to worship they had to descend into a immultion pool for they were considered un pure. There were two staircases going into the pool with a division down the middle. The un pure went down one stairs, immersed themselves in the water and came up the other stairs pure. Then they could enter the temple and worship. There was a troth through the center of the pool where running water flowed through. They called this living waters and they called the stones..talking stones. Most Hebrew scholars believe this is where Acts 2 happened. It is the only area big enough to hold 3 thousand people. Remember it was Pentecost and the people gathered from all nations and journeyed to the city to worship in the temple and when the Holy Ghost fell and they spoke with tongues every man heard in their own language. There are many immersion pools before you mount the stairs to the temple. This is the only place where 3 thousand could have been baptized. The Jews were used to the immersion in water so it was not unusual for them when John came baptizing in the river Jordan. Isn't the wisdom of God amazing God bless, Linda
