3071. 'And also I will give your camels a drink' means consequent enlightenment of all facts within the natural man. This is clear from the meaning of 'camels' as general facts, and so facts in general or in their entirety, dealt with above in 3048, and from the meaning of 'giving a drink' as enlightening. For 'drawing water' means giving instruction, as shown above in 3058, and so 'giving a drink' is enlightening, for enlightenment comes from instruction.

It's common to say “I see” when we understand something. And indeed, “seeing” in the Bible represents grasping and understanding spiritual things. So it makes sense that the eyes, which allow us to see, represent the intellect, which allows us to understand spiritual things. This can also be used in the negative, of course; the Bible speaks of people having eyes and refusing to see, and the Lord when He was in the world advised plucking out an offending eye. These represent a refusal to acknowledge truth, or being misled by falsity.
