John 5 is a biblical passage that tells the story of Jesus healing a disabled man at the Pool of Bethesda in Jerusalem. The chapter begins with Jesus traveling to the pool, where he discovers the man lying there for 38 years, waiting for someone to help him. Jesus approaches the man and asks if he wants to be healed. The man replies that he has no one to help him into the pool. Jesus instructs him to pick up his mat and walk, and the man is instantly healed. This miracle causes controversy among the Jewish leaders, who accuse Jesus of breaking the Sabbath. Jesus defends himself by stating his divine authority and declares that he and the Father are one. The chapter ends with Jesus admonishing the people to listen and believe his words, as his words hold the key to eternal life.
