In Jerusalem there is a pool with five porches called Bethesda near the sheep gate. 3 Inside these porches lay many sick people. Some were blind. Some could not walk. Some could not move their bodies. 4 (*An angel of the Lord came at certain times and made the water move. All of them were waiting for it to move. Whoever got in the water first after it was moving was healed of whatever sickness he had.)
Inspired from this passage in John 5, “BACK TO BETHESDA”, is about a desire for submersion into Bethesda’s pool of healing waters. Because there seemed to be competition involved, deeply saturated turquoise green is used as a nod to an envious nature - perhaps of those going back for another attempt.
