Water is a synonym for love. Not in English, Greek or in the Cha’dee language the Hebrews absorbed into their culture while in captivity and continued to speak upon their release. They had became shopkeepers and overseers and no longer Husbandmen.
All the Hebrews, except those engaged in religious services, were husbandmen before their captivity.
Cha’dee is the Aramaic dialect, as it is sometimes called, as distinguished from the Hebrew dialect. It was the language of commerce and of social intercourse,
The original Hebrew language is the language that Jesus spoke.
The digging of wells and sharing of the water before the Hebrews were taken into captivity were symbolic of friendship and love between peoples.
Wine is a synonym for spiritual life in the language that Jesus spoke in. That life can only be found in the blood of Christ Jesus through the love of God ferment working in us through The Holy Spirit. It is not our love of God working but the devine love of God working in us.
I drink at a well that we call a senior center that people like Ms. Eula Mae Townsend, a ninety four year old Christian voluntarily dug with Christian love for thirty years. A well at which the thristy are never turned away.
