Startling news regarding the Pool of Siloam: a new theory proposed by archaeologists excavating it

um I took a video of the pool of Siloam  like um latte two weeks ago but you asked   me uh to visit it again then I'm doing it  then it's your job to send that video to   everyone and let's hit August 21st I've  been here two weeks ago more than 50   000 people already watched my  video and Reza say hi to everyone hey let me see let me ask him well guys news  I don't know if it's real or not but they're   telling news totally different things and  we had so many things uh to talk about it   but you can see the excavation in process which  is again rare but it's happening city of David   a lot then let's go to there and let's talk  about it I think I already told you Reza that   when King Hezekiah we are talking about 8th  Century BC build the Secret Tunnel of water   to keep it from the enemies from the Assyrian  we can actually sit here while we are talking   let me see thank you yeah the wow it's it's it's  a big wow then when you're watching that video   and you actually saw the other video that I  took you can almost delete the other video   there's so many question marks I don't know  what if I will tell you now the story that   I will tell you now it's the real story because  maybe in about two months they will excavate it   and they will find something new here but then  let's start with it King Hezekiah Build That   Wall there see damasaman is cleaning the wall and  this is 8th Century BC which is a lot and you use   it as a pool it call it a pull of King Solomon  of The Gardens of King Solomon it was uh full   with water because uh wanted to use it they use  it for so many things and not sure that they use   it only for the to purify the body but it for a  lot for agriculture even to for pleasure and then   we know are we already talked about it that the  Jews had to purify their body not the soul not   like John the Baptist well John the Baptist did  was totally different they had to Pure their body   uh before they enter to so many uh holy sites  and one of them is the Jewish temple the words   of Jewish temple later on I will show you a  map it's right there on top of it I'm sorry   about the noise but you must listen to it because  I'm afraid that I will forget something from here   then what we believed that King Herod built  here a pool use the the wall of King kazakaya   as one of the walls and then he built those kind  of stairs now those kind of stairs why it's like   that why why the why it's not like monster um that  takes you to the to the end of the pool the name   gihon which is the name of the pool and we read it  from the book of King is where the uh water pumps   from time to time there's water Fontana there's  less water it all depends on the the season   then if it's a long season the water will be  only at the bottom then all the people will walk all the way down until they will reach the ground  and they will purify themselves now there are so   many someone asked me yesterday that question  the temple is far away why to build a pool here   and then you have to walk all the way you will  sweat you will touch people you will be less pure   done the reason is very simple first of  all there are so many um little buff like   that next to the temple but one or two or three  people can purify themselves it's a small place   here because they're spring Rich to here  it became to be a very big place then what   he built here was a massive pool that was  surrounded everything here it will it was   more it was bigger than the Olympic pools it  was 70 meter by 70 meter then what we thought   that it was a square thing and when we started  to excavate here we didn't find the other side   I thought that the Harvesters been destroyed  because for so many years see why the people   are Excavating now that was that part  was belonged to the Greek Orthodox Church   the same Greek Orthodox church that owns the  um Imperial Hotel that you are staying in   and they sold that to it and it took  us years after we excavated and we were   sure that we will find a square thing just  like that let's climb up to show you how we   actually believed and this is the secret  wait wait to hear the news don't go away but again it's a theory it's a  new Theory and I heard it from   the one who Excavating here the truth I  don't know what the truth is all right this is the world from King Hezekiah it's  used as a them just stop the water the   water entered here and I'm sure that there were  options for the water to go out we found that which is that that and that and I asked myself  why I cannot see the end of it why I didn't see   that part and then he told me it's  okay what King Herod built is that the rest as they believe very visible  that doesn't exist it was like a pool   then people purify themselves right  here that's why he built the stairs   only that that one he didn't build that's  why until now they didn't find any evidence   for the um for a distance of King Herod  at the other side again I know that you   are in a State of Shock like me we expect  it to see a pool like that what we find is   right there and not because it didn't someone  destroyed the part because he didn't build it resin we are a witness to history   wow this is this is for me amazing this is for me  this is for me let me show you how it used to be this is something special consider the water is  still running remember we didn't enter to the wet   tunnel but the water is running until tonight  you cannot stop um you cannot stop a spring just like me this is this  is amazing this is a totally   new uh Edition I mean I mean the video that you  saw that more than 50 000 people want a watch   from two weeks ago and they're still watching  in a way you can delete it because we knew we   have now a new version a new Theory which  I'm not sure that this is the last Theory wow I'm so happy that I asked him because  I said to myself why should I take a video   because I took a video two weeks ago and then I  said no I will take a video for Reza thank you sir   yeah but without any news but we have any news we  have the news then let me show you the new Theory sorry about the noise you see now I'm not using the headset  and that is the problem all right   let's say something like that this  is the wall from 8th Century DC   or some people believe that it's actually  from second century BC from the hashman attack   but we saw the stairs here and leave it there and  then there's no continuation that one wasn't exist   it was kind of a pool but people purified  themselves not all over they just did it here and then Reza they went all the way up to the  temple I remembered we both have tickets that   most expensive tickets because I asked if you  want to continue with me although I'm sure that   you will be tired after that can you see that  look at through the video this is the gate yes   yes this is one of the entrances to the temple  where now we call it Robinson Arch and remember   the upper part of it because we're going to  see it and the lower part of it we're gonna   see it too and that was the entrance to the  king's Palace king hero Palace on the temple   the Jewish temple was you can you see  the Throne of the rock it was instead   of the Dome of the Rock and we saw  the three entrance to pull the gates and if you want to be tired I will take you there and you can say that you actually build  with me remember we've been at Mount of   Olives today you saw the you see Garden who  got something now that road is wide because   lucky the marathon everyone starts together  and then people like me if cannot breathe   we'll be he will walk slowly slowly and I do  even a video of that road which is beneath us   and uh it's not still it's still not open to  the public but if you will send me a message   I will send you the link for it let's go to  see the street I'm still in a State of Shock   we have news in that video and Reza I will try to  upload it in about two days because this is news   this is years yeah yeah yes and send it to  everyone send it to everyone a new theory of   uh of it if it's true or not I don't know they  didn't publish it yet yes yes yes then this is   strange stairs one stir is wide and then another  one and then another white one and then why it's very easy one I mean it's not very easy  we don't know but because that we don't know we   have speculation the idea that you just purified  your mother you have to go slowly slowly to the   temple then if it's a wide stir you don't need to  look at your shoes because you know that nothing   will happen to you you can look at the temple  with love this is amazing now the sewage canal   is beneath us and you can see here two verses  and it looks like Norman it's never been damaged   70 80 70 A.D when the Jewish temple been destroyed  some of the Jews use the search Canal the drainage   Canal to run away all the way to the Kidron Valley  from there to Jordan of today to Egypt of today   maybe to misada and they took me down foot the  Romans heard about it then instead of running   after them they destroy part of their floor here  for example and here and they set it on fire Dan did you say tyranny had to go outside  I couldn't breathe anymore some of it died   they suffocated so they went out and they were  captured by the Romans that's why we found here   vases that never been there destroyed because they  just left it and went out amazing isn't it then we   actually were evidence for a new Theory what can I  tell you um is it okay if I'll take you to see the   um syllable pool of silum from the 5th  Century all right uh we do have energy   then let's talk about what's happened  here with Jesus now why Jesus was here   three times a year every Jew had to be in the  city because those are the three festivals   Passover was one of them eraser Jesus never  visited the city in Eastern time we are visiting   the city of Easter time he came for Passover to  be in the temple because the temple was the only   place to pray synagogues at the time of Jesus  wearing House of prey and they are not House of   God until today synagogue is not House of God  there's only one house of God and this is in   Jerusalem that lets for that big group shoot  disappeared then we are climbing the stairs that part now belongs to the Muslims you see it's the one that's the  silom or in Arabic Islamic work do you want to touch the the water of the  Jerusalem yeah but be careful it's slippery   were there children don't know the death was part  of a church that was built by hedokia a woman   in the way of Caesar she's a wife then she  came to here and she built it and until 2004   that was full of silence for us and only 2004 by  a chance we found a pool that we just came from oh someone is dying done you can see here looks  like um group of Ethiopians because again Jesus was here too then Jesus was here too when he had to  purify this body but then he saw a blond man   and he did something that I didn't like he  was spitting on the floor and with that with   a floor he actually touched the eyes of  the blind man and he was killed foreign let them go out and I will ask a special little bit of water of him  he's a Christian I wanted to do yes yes thank you very much thank you then you're almost being Baptist again with  the holy water remember the kings were anointed   by the water of Jerusalem and the last one who  actually been anointed by the oil of Jerusalem   was Prince no Prince King Charles   yeah and this is the pool until the from the  5th Century part of the church until 2004. and now and then we found the pool that  we saw and the new new new information   the newest information now oh gosh  I must upload it as quick as I can Hallelujah for that again I'm not sure it's true  or not they can change it   again and again again but it  actually looks looks like it send it to everyone and if you never if  it differs this is the first video of   mine and him subscribe my channel subscribe to my  channel be part of the family just like Reza is wow I am in love with Jerusalem shuttle service then until two weeks ago it  was five seconds now each other seven shekels Doom I don't know if you can see whatever you have  to see me I mean I'm in aesthetic I'm I don't know   what to do I wish that I could run to each house  of you of yours to publish that video we ever knew   thanks uh brother is it okay to walk through  the stairs of King Herod but be careful please and guess what you can see more  another Apple doctor of the water foreign that's where they purify their body and we  are we were witnessed to uh history thank you   very much for being with me let's say goodbye  from City of David full of Salem Hallelujah
