The gate was not only as ideal location for begging, it represented the farthest point the beggar could go as invalids were not allowed to enter the temple beyond the precinct of the Gentiles (Leviticus 21:17-20; II Samuel 5:8). Tragically, the man could stop at the gate but never enter.

Awesome video !

Glory to God.

I love your videos, but look at alternative locations of the temple. It wasn't on the top of the hill. That wall is part of the roman fort. Like when Peter was about to get assaulted by the crowd when he was preaching, the Roman guards "ran down" to break it up. Not 1 stone will be left upon a another. That means exactly what it means. The temple would be turned I to a field and sown under. I don't know, there's a lot of good videos on KZread about this, I'd suggest people to check out, especially if you're like me, and enjoy these videos

And I'll add, the Antonio fortress, the roman one, had 6,000 soldiers stationed there, it's not that small area they claim it is, it is that wall. Roman's built forts and always took the highground. And the temple was the threshing floor of onan, that's not on hilltops.

This is so interesting. Perhaps it happened this way because Jesus wanted others to know that he himself has given other men power to heal, using his name (a name given above all names). The scriptures did use the term “A certain man”. The lame man was not just any man, he had a purpose. Dont forget, Jesus had taught his disciples many things, he also told them that even greater works they will do. So people will know that people will have the power to heal after he ascends to the right hand of the Father. That through his name (Jesus) there is power and authority over all power of the enemy, therefore being a sign….bringing others to believe. It’s also similar to the blind man whom the disciples asked Jesus about, asking if it was his parent’s sin that he was born that way. But when Jesus healed that particular blind man, people questioned the authenticity of that miracle. Regardless, that blind man was blind from birth so that God could be glorified through their healing. It was all meant to be. After all, both the lame man and the blind man couldn’t miss what they never had. Healing was added to their lives as a miraculous gift.

Thanks for the video but i disagree Jesus walked by him and refused to heal him. NEVER in scripture did He refuse to heal anyone and we absolutely do not know He walked by this man. That’s conjecture. If He did and the man asked for healing i absolutely believe Jesus would have healed him right then like He did every single other person that ever asked
