There is the tomb where Ioseph was laid, in the estate that Iacob his father gave him. From there too Dina the daughter of Iacob was carried off by the sons of the Amorites. A mile from there is a place called Sechar, from which the Samaritan woman came down to the same place where Iacob dug the well, to fill her jar from it, and our Lord Jesus Christ spoke with her; there are also plane trees which Iacob planted, and a bath supplied from that well. From there, twenty-eight miles on, as one goes to Hierusalem, on the left side, is an estate called Bethar. A mile from there is the place where Iacob slept when he was going to Mesopotamia, and there is an almond tree there, and he saw a vision, and an angel wrestled with him. ### Scripture references - Josh 24:32: allusion, high confidence - Gen 48:22: allusion, medium confidence - Gen 34:2: allusion, high confidence - John 4:5: allusion, high confidence - Gen 28:12: allusion, high confidence - Gen 32:24: allusion, high confidence ### Translation notes - Joseph's burial: Josh 24:32; the land Jacob gave him: Gen 48:22.

From there to Hierusalem, 12 miles. From Caesarea Palestina to Hierusalem it makes 116 miles, 4 changes (of horses), 4 changes (of horses). In Hierusalem there are two large pools beside the temple, that is, one on the right, the other on the left, which Salomon made; and further inside the city are twin pools, having five porticoes, which are called Betsaida. There the sick of many years used to be healed. These pools have water that is stirred up and reddish, like scarlet. ### Scripture references - 1 Kgs 13:24: allusion, high confidence - John 5:2: allusion, high confidence ### Translation notes - The prophet and Jeroboam: 1 Kgs 13. In the Bible the old prophet of Bethel deceives him; 'false prophet the king had with him' is the pilgrim's version. 'Changes (of horses)' is printed twice in the total; the second probably stood for stopping places. The five-porticoed pool: John 5:2–5. ### Citation (SBL) Itin. Burd. 589 (CSEL 39:20–21; trans.

Ibi est angulus turris excelsissimae, ubi dominus ascendit, et dixit ei his, qui temptabat eum.... Et ait ei dominus: Non temptabis dominum deum tuum, sed illi soli seruies.

Ibi etiam constat cubiculus, in quo sedit et sapientiam descripsit; ipse uero cubiculus uno lapide est tectus. ### English translation (Claude) There is also the crypt where Salomon used to torture demons. There is the corner of a very high tower, where the Lord went up, and he who was tempting him said to him … And the Lord said to him: "You shall not tempt the Lord your God, but him only shall you serve." There is also the great cornerstone of which it was said: "The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner." And under the pinnacle of that tower are many chambers, where Salomon had his palace. There too stands the chamber in which he sat and wrote down wisdom; that chamber is roofed with a single stone. ### Scripture references - Matt 4:5: allusion, high confidence - Matt 4:7: quotation, high confidence - Matt 4:10: quotation, high confidence - Ps 118:22 (117:22 Vulg.): quotation, high confidence ### Translation notes - The temptation on the pinnacle: Matt 4:5–7; the Lord's answer here joins Matt 4:7 and 4:10. The gap '….' is in the text. The cornerstone: Ps 118:22 (Vulgate 117:22). Solomon's power over demons is a later Jewish and Christian tradition (cf. the Testament of Solomon).

Est ibi et domus Ezechiae regis Iudae. ### English translation (Claude) There are also great underground cisterns for water and pools built with great labour. And in the very building where the temple stood, which Salomon built, on the marble before the altar you would say that the blood of Zacharias was shed there today; the marks of the nails of the soldiers who killed him also appear all over the area, so that you would think they were pressed into wax. There are also two statues of Hadrian there, and not far from the statues is a pierced stone, to which the Jews come every year and anoint it, and lament with groaning, and tear their clothes, and so go away. There is also the house of Ezechias, king of Judah. ### Scripture references - Matt 23:35: allusion, high confidence - 2 Chr 24:21: allusion, medium confidence ### Translation notes - Zechariah slain between the sanctuary and the altar: Matt 23:35; 2 Chr 24:20–22.

Haec fons sex diebus atque noctibus currit, septima uero die est sabbatum; in totum nec nocte nec die currit.

This spring runs for six days and nights, but the seventh day is the sabbath: it does not run at all, neither by night nor by day. By the same way one climbs Sion, and it is clear where the house of Caiaphas the priest was, and the column is still there at which they beat Christ with scourges. Inside, within the wall of Sion, can be seen the place where David had his palace. And of the seven synagogues that were there, only one remains; the rest are ploughed and sown, as the prophet Isaias said. ### Scripture references - John 9:7: allusion, high confidence - Matt 27:26: allusion, high confidence - Mic 3:12: allusion, medium confidence - Isa 1:8: allusion, low confidence ### Translation notes - Silua is Siloam (John 9:7).

Not far from there, about a stone's throw, are two monuments of wonderful beauty: in one, which is truly a monolith, the prophet Isaias was laid, and in the other Ezechias, king of the Jews. From there you climb the Mount of Olives, where the Lord taught the apostles before his passion. There a basilica has been built by order of Constantine.

Formerly, if any woman drank of this water, she did not bear children. At the side is an earthenware vessel.
