The Pool of Siloam in Jerusalem has a significant Christian archeological meaning. It is the Pool of Siloam in which, according to the Gospel of John, is the place where Jesus healed a blind man by putting a mud on his eyes and sending him to wash them with the water of the pool. The name Siloam is the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew name Shiloah, which means “send” or “let go.” Isn’t that interesting?
Now why is this site of the Pool of Siloam so unique?
Because if we can find archeological evidence of the location of the Pool of Siloam, we can be sure that Jesus has actually been at this site.
So where is the Pool of Siloam?
The Pool of Siloam is mentioned several times in the Bible. Isaiah 8:6 mentions the pool’s waters, while Isaiah 22:9 refers to the construction of Hezekiah’s Tunnel.
The Pool of Siloam is a rock-cut pool on the southern slope of the City of David, the original site of Jerusalem, located outside the walls of the Old City to the southeast. The pool is fed by the waters of the Gihon Spring.
Until 2004, people thought that the pool at the end of Hezekiah’s Tunnel was the right location. The Byzantine empress, Eudocia (400-460 A.D), was the first to build a church there, but was destroyed when Jerusalem was captures by the Muslims. Today we can see some of the church pillars located at that pool (now called the Byzantine Pool). For years, the Byzantine Pool of Siloam was a sacred destination for Christian pilgrims from all over the world.
In the autumn of 2004, during a sewer excavation in the area, stone steps were found. The shape of these steps and the fact that there was a corner to the steps led to the assumption that these were not regular steps but part of a Second Temple-period pool. Excavations commenced and confirmed that this is the original Pool of Siloam dating back to the time of Jesus.
This archeological finding made the Pool of Siloam one of few places in Jerusalem where we can be sure that today we can actually walk on stones that Jesus has actually walked on.
Hezekiah’s Tunnel
I was just there, walked the tunnel too, and this really helped me understand what I saw.
We walked through the tunnel the day after Yom Kippur in 2009, doing a tour of that area and the newly found things. Awesome to walk at pool as shown in this video, the steps. Very nice video
What expertise they had in ancient times!... Such an engineering marvel for transporting water!
Thank you. I was studying 2 Kings chapter 20 today and wanted to see the tunnel. My claustrophobia and I appreciate this video tour very much.
Inscription: This is the story of the boring through: while [the tunnellers lifted] the pick, each towards his fellows, and whilst three cubits [yet remained] to be bored through, [there was heard] the voice of a man calling his fellow, for there was a split in the rock on the right hand and on [the left hand]. And of the day of the boring through, the tunnellers struck, each in the direction of his fellow, pick against pick. And the water started to flow from the sources to the pool twelve hundred cubits." Ref. page 73, Paul Johnson's "A History of the Jews." A cubit is about 1 1/2 feet so 1200 cubits is about 1800 feet or 0.34 miles or 1/2 km.
Thank you. I have read that there was an inscription, but never what it said.
I love Danny the Digger's videos. It is incredible seeing this pool. I had no idea it was this big or elaborate
I can’t believe I am seeing these things, ancient kings have tried to find them and had it wrong for hundreds and hundreds of years, I hope you all can grasp it, I can’t believe I’m looking at the Pool of Siloam where He stood and healed the blind man 🙌🙌🙌I’m speechless I had no idea it was larger than a commercial pool of our times! No idea it was such an extensive massive pool that is incredible can’t wait till all the secrets of that area are revealed, this is just incredible
Woa very intriguing, mind blowing. I wished to visit and be in those historical places. It makes me strongly believing the bible when I read it. The history here is so richly important, this is Jesus Christ walks into it 2.000 years ago, God walks along this places on earth. Praise God He reveals these site's by archeological lines, scientifically. Science and archeology proves that God is real. 🙏🙏💖💖🙏🙏
Beautiful !!!! Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved
saved? good luck with that one. you need it,huh.
Teresa Karr You prove God correct. He sends no one to hell, you send yourself there... Would God be righteous if He allowed those who mocked His children in this life, ones that strived too obey and love Him too let you live with them and Him in eternity? Once time ends there is no place for unbelievers too exist if they rejected their creator. You are with Him or against Him.
Rick Howard
Hey Rick, you gotta read Numbers 16, read the whole chapter, korah gets sent to hell by God.
Also, there's Ananias and Sapphira, who thought they could tell a lie about how much they sold their land for, they also were sent to hell by God.
These are just two Bible passages i know of, but it goes to show, God is capable of sending anyone to the pit, should they try and cheat him or question his authority.
God bless brother...
Repent and believe in Jesus! Repent and believe the Gospel!
Amazing! I'm so touched.
Just dump me in the pool Lord Jesus I have faith of eternal healing ☺️🙏🏽
There is Miracles in that Tunnel🙏🙏
Please pray for Janie jr roy thankyou
Hallelujah!
Amazing ✨
Those visiting, are lucky to visit this site
but we bring this experience to you where ever you are.
Well done, great video. Are people allowed to get in the remains of the pool?
Imagine digging that tunnel by oil lantern light.
Amazing
"The corner we 'sse' today" I was taking it seriously up to the point where you realized it's a kid borrowing archived videos from some underrated website. EDIT: not hating. Nice video. I love Jesus and this is really something :).
Good Tour! I say this as I too used to do Christian tours throughout most of Israel and always liked Hezikiah's Tunnel (He-zi qi YAH-YAHWEH's strength!)
Yess- many great archaeological finds throughout Israel these last twenty years. But I would remind all Christians- Israel is Not- an Amusement Park where you just go, pay your entrance fee and your in! There is soo much more happening- i.e. (Mat.24.6 'signs' are upon the whole world and escalating quickly!
I was there a week ago and took some water from the pool
Mys Gee omg how was it
Thanks for the video. Anyone could be so gentle to locate in google earth the coordinates for the entry on the gihon part, and the exit were the pillars of the old church can be seen?
Why is the pool of Siloam closed? Why does the cámaras do not go there?
I am fascinated by the pool of Siloam. I cannot wait to see it completely excavated. I hope the old moslem man that owns the land above sells it
thank you! do they have plans to uncover the rest of the pool & get the water flowing back there again?
I do not think so.
well, maybe in the future, the land will go up for sale & the government can buy it & uncover the rest of the pool!! god willing, ty for answering! god bless you
pat murphy : in an other description of the pool, it was mentioned that the land above it was owned by an old moslem man and was still farmed.
That would be cool, but it’s amazing to see it just as it is, I never thought I would get to see something like this. for hundreds of years kings have tried to locate these things and couldn’t until now
Interesting

When was this pool discovered? In the mid 1800 the pool was open an there was a picture of it. The pool of ?.. Hezekiah
In the autumn of 2004, during a sewer excavation in the area, stone steps were found and later we understood that they were just part of the complete pool of Siloan.
But what about the pool?
I'm getting claustrophobic just watching this amazing thing.
I really love Danny the Digger
We also.
I wish i were there to see
Please pray for Janie jr roy thankyou
So do I also Bob C...
Seems there is something connection about King Hezekiah story and the people who digs the tunnel and Story about Jesus healed the blind man on that River of Siloam..
Thank You Avah Yeshua for the mystery reveals..
Jesus is Coming back soon🙏😊
The blind person did not approach Jesus seeking any kind of redemption or anything. The blind person was sitting on the side of the street begging for coins. Jesus approached him.
More importantly, the leading Jews condemned Yeshua for healing the man, because he did it on the Sabbath. How hypocritical of them. Secondly, Jesus it says "passed by the man." Certainly it is not without some justification that we can assume that the man hearing the commotion cried out to Yeshua for mercy as he certainly knew of his reputation as a man of great works. For John records, Yeshua as saying, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned [i.e., a special sin caused his blindness] but that the works of God should be revealed in him." And the works of God have been revealed with the telling of this event for the past 2,000 years or so.
You do not know what the blind man was thinking or praying.
FALSE - Hezekiah's Pool IS NOT only mentioned in John from your NT!!!
2 Kings Chapter 20 מְלָכִים ב
20 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
2 Chronicles 32:2-4
2 Chronicles 32:30
Christians are very familiar with the passages from 2 Kings 20 and the more extensive account of the tunnel that Hezekiah built with the help of "am ha-aretz" in 2 Chronicles 32. The validity of the information of John 9 is confirmed and strengthened by the earlier references and shown to be consistent and credible.
You have some hearing problems, he mentioned the Hezekiah's Pool comes from the times of the Old Testament.
It's amazing how that plastic pipe kept the entire area from flooding 2,700 years ago.
Oh, I think the title is wrong. Siloam not Siloan. oh well :P
