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.

'Soft raiment,' as in Matthew 11:9, represents the internal sense of the Word.
