Episode 24: Jesus Wrote My Name

Episode 24

Two good sources to read more about the Origins of the True Cross are “The Legend of the True Cross” Piero della Francesca -  https://www.theartofpainting.be/AOP-Legend_of_the_true_Cross.htm  
and “The Legend of the True Cross” by Angola Gaddi - https://www.newliturgicalmovement.org/2019/09/the-legend-of-true-cross-by-agnolo-gaddi.html

My old age must have got to me because I did not explain the Origin of the True Cross temple part correct. So, I will in short explain here now. King Solomon cut down the tree to make a column for the temple. The wood would not cooperate and not fit, so he threw it over a pond to serve as a bridge. When the Queen of Sheba was about to cross the bridge she suddenly stopped and had a vision that the Savior of the world would one day hang from the wood. Then she had a dream and told Solomon that the Kingdom of the Jews would come when a man would hang from the wood. King Solomon then in fear threw the wood into the pond. The pond was called the Probatica pond and is mentioned in John 5:2. The Probatica pond in Hebrew is named Bethsaida or Bethesda. It means Shepherds and Sheep Gate. Now Bethsaida or Bethesda means House of Mercy.
