208. MS M.917/945, pp. 108–109

Unsuitable for constructing the temple, the timber is employed as a lowly footbridge over the stream of Cedron. It is this footbridge that the Queen of Sheba must cross in order to pay a visit to Solomon. The queen, however, had a prophetic vision that the bridge would furnish the wood upon which Christ would be crucified. She therefore refuses to tread on the bridge and instead wades, as we see here, across the Cedron to reach the waiting king.
