Verse 19
A well of springing water - חיים מים באר beer mayim chaiyim , A well of living waters. This is the oriental phrase for a spring, and this is its meaning both in the Old and New Testaments: Leviticus 14:5 , Leviticus 14:50 ; Leviticus 15:30 ; Numbers 19:17 ; Song of Solomon 4:15 . See also John 4:10-14 ; John 7:38 ; Revelation 21:6 ; Revelation 22:1 . And by these scriptures we find that an unfailing spring was an emblem of the graces and influences of the Spirit of God.
