The water of that pool was the Jewish people, and the five porches were the law, because Moses wrote five books; Therefore, the water was surrounded by five corridors, just as this people was governed by the law, and the disturbance of the water is the suffering of the Lord that came among the people. The person who was descending and being healed was one person, because this is unity. Whoever comes after that will not be healed, because no one is healed outside of unity
