Even if the Temple was built over the Gihon spring in the "City of David", it is still 50 feet lower than where the temple platform would be.

| 47: | The Temple in Jerusalem over the threshing floor which is presently ... ... How did the temple priests wash and cleanse the temple area with "living water"? The Gihon spring inside the city of David cannot lift water that high, so the nearest "living water" would be 30 miles south in Hebron. A considerable construction task. For those who think the solution is locating the temple right over the Gihon spring itself, we remind them that just as you would not locate your toilet in the middle of your kitchen table, so also no one in ancient times would locate a threshing floor directly beside the only source of fresh drinking water for a 5 mile radius. Another problem with the idea that the temple floor had to be lowered by 50 feet in order to have water flow freely from the conduit is overcome if you assume they used a closed siphon to raise it up higher to the current floor level.
