Why do the Synoptic Gospels have Jesus conceal that He is the Messiah, while in John He speaks about it openly?
The “Messianic secret” in Matthew, Mark, and Luke and the openness in the Gospel of John are not a contradiction. Different Gospels have different audiences and different theological emphases. Jesus adapted His self-revelation to the context of the audience and to the right timing.

Did an angel really stir the water in the pool of Bethesda according to the Gospel of John 5?
