href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/0/0">Christian Greek Scriptures</a>, separates Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives. It runs from N to S along the eastern side of the city. The Kidron Valley was usually waterless, even in winter, except in the case of an especially heavy rain. The Greek word <em>kheiʹmar·ros,</em> here rendered “valley,” literally means “a winter torrent,” that is, a stream of water that flows abundantly because of the heavy rains during the winter season. This Greek word is used more than 80 times in the <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/1/0"><em>Septuagint</em></a> to render the Hebrew word <em>naʹchal,</em> the corresponding expression for “valley,” used when the Kidron Valley is mentioned in the Hebrew Scriptures.

In ancient times, charcoal was made by covering a pile of wood with earth and burning it slowly for several days with only enough air to burn off the gases. This left behind a relatively pure form of carbon. It was a time-consuming process requiring careful supervision, but charcoal was a favored fuel when intense, sustained heat without smoke was desired. Charcoal in an open fire or in a brazier was used for warmth.

But Jesus’ kingship differs from what Pilate imagines, since Jesus’ Kingdom is “no part of this world” and thus no threat to Rome.—<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/37/0" data-bid="38-1" class="b">Joh 18:33-36</a>.</p> <p id="p35" data-pid="35" class="s5"><strong>bear witness to:</strong> As used in the <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/24/0">Christian Greek Scriptures</a>, the Greek words rendered “to bear witness” (<em>mar·ty·reʹo</em>) and “witness” (<em>mar·ty·riʹa; marʹtys</em>) are broad in meaning. These related terms are used in the basic sense of testifying to facts from firsthand or personal knowledge, but they may also include the idea of “declaring; confirming; speaking well of.” Not only did Jesus testify to and proclaim truths of which he was convinced but he also lived in such a way that he upheld the truth of his Father’s prophetic word and promises. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/38/0" data-bid="39-1" class="b">2Co 1:20</a>) God’s purpose in connection with the Kingdom and its Messianic Ruler had been foretold in detail. Jesus’ entire earthly life course, culminating in his sacrificial death, fulfilled all prophecies about him, including the shadows, or patterns, contained in the Law covenant.

A key element of God’s purpose is that Jesus, the “son of David,” serves as High Priest and as Ruler of God’s Kingdom. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/40/0" data-bid="41-1" class="b">Mt 1:1</a>) Jesus explained that a primary reason for his coming into the world of mankind, his life on earth, and his ministry was to declare the truth about that Kingdom. The angels declared a similar message prior to and at the time of Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem of Judea, the city where David was born.—<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070686/41/0" data-bid="42-1"
