They served as essential sources of water for drinking, washing, and irrigation, especially in arid regions where water was scarce. Pools are mentioned in various contexts throughout the Bible, highlighting their importance in daily life, religious practices, and as metaphors in spiritual teachings.<br><br><b>Old Testament References</b><br><br>1. <b>Pool of Siloam</b>: One of the most notable pools mentioned in the Old Testament is the Pool of Siloam in Jerusalem. Constructed during the reign of King Hezekiah, it was part of an impressive water system designed to secure the city's water supply during sieges. The pool is referenced in <a href="/isaiah/8-6.htm">Isaiah 8:6</a>, "Because this people has rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloah and rejoices in Rezin and the son of Remaliah," indicating its significance in the life of Jerusalem.<br><br>2. <b>Pool of Gibeon</b>: Another significant pool is the Pool of Gibeon, mentioned in <a href="/2_samuel/2-13.htm">2 Samuel 2:13</a>. It was the site of a fierce battle between the forces of Joab and Abner, representing a place of conflict and resolution. The pool's strategic location made it a gathering point for military and political events.<br><br>3. <b>Pools of Heshbon</b>: In <a href="/songs/7-4.htm">Song of Solomon 7:4</a>, the pools of Heshbon are used metaphorically to describe the beauty of the beloved: "Your neck is like a tower of ivory; your eyes are the pools of Heshbon by the gate of Bath Rabbim." This poetic imagery underscores the pools' aesthetic and cultural value.<br><br><b>New Testament References</b><br><br>1. <b>Pool of Bethesda</b>: In the New Testament, the Pool of Bethesda is a site of healing, as described in <a href="/john/5-2.htm">John 5:2-4</a>. The pool, located near the Sheep Gate in Jerusalem, was believed to have healing properties when its waters were stirred. Jesus performed a miracle here, healing a man who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years, demonstrating His power and compassion.<br><br>2. <b>Pool of Siloam</b>: The Pool of Siloam is also mentioned in the New Testament in the context of Jesus healing a man born blind. In <a href="/john/9-7.htm">John 9:7</a>, Jesus instructs the man, "Go, wash in the Pool of Siloam" (which means Sent). The man's obedience and subsequent healing serve as a testament to faith and the transformative power of Christ.<br><br><b>Symbolic Significance</b><br><br>Pools in the Bible often symbolize spiritual cleansing and renewal. The act of washing in a pool can represent purification and the washing away of sin, as seen in the healing miracles of Jesus. Additionally, pools can symbolize abundance and divine provision, reflecting God's care for His people.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context</b><br><br>In ancient Israel, pools were vital for sustaining life and agriculture. They were often constructed to collect rainwater or fed by aqueducts and springs. The engineering of pools, such as those in Jerusalem, demonstrates the advanced understanding of water management in biblical times.<br><br>Overall, pools in the Bible are multifaceted, serving as practical resources, sites of divine intervention, and rich symbols of spiritual truths. Their presence in both the Old and New Testaments underscores their enduring significance in the biblical narrative.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Pools</span><p>See CISTERNS. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Pools of Solomon<p>The name given to three large open cisterns at Etam, at the head of the Wady Urtas, having an average length of 400 feet by 220 in breadth, and 20 to 30 in depth. These pools derive their chief supply of water from a spring called "the sealed fountain," about 200 yards to the north-west of the upper pool, to which it is conveyed by a large subterranean passage. They are 150 feet distant from each other, and each pool is 20 feet lower than that above it, the conduits being so arranged that the lowest, which is the largest and finest of the three, is filled first, and then in succession the others. It has been estimated that these pools cover in all a space of about 7 acres, and are capable of containing three million gallons of water. They were, as is generally supposed, constructed in the days of Solomon. They are probably referred to in Ecclesiastes 2:6. On the fourth day after his victory over the Ammonites, etc., in the wilderness of Tekoa, Jehoshaphat assembled his army in the valley of Berachah ("blessing"), and there blessed the Lord. Berachah has been identified with the modern Bereikut, some 5 miles south of Wady Urtas, and hence the "valley of Berachah" may be this valley of pools, for the word means both "blessing" and "pools;" and it has been supposed, therefore, that this victory was celebrated beside Solomon's pools (<a href="/2_chronicles/20-26.htm">2 Chronicles 20:26</a>).<p>These pools were primarily designed to supply Jerusalem with water. From the lower pool an aqueduct has been traced conveying the water through Bethlehem and across the valley of Gihon, and along the west slope of the Tyropoeon valley, till it finds its way into the great cisterns underneath the temple hill. The water, however, from the pools reaches now only to Bethlehem. The aqueduct beyond this has been destroyed. <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">POOLS OF SOLOMON</span><p>poolz.<br><br>See <a href="../c/cistern.htm">CISTERN</a>; <a href="../p/pool.htm">POOL</a>.<p><span class="encheading">SOLOMON, POOLS OF</span><p>See <a href="../p/pools.htm">POOLS OF SOLOMON</a>.<p><a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/1295.htm"><span class="l">1295. berekah -- a pool, pond</span></a><br><b>...</b> Definition: pool.
