Arcana Coelestia # 3065
3065. 'Behold, I am standing beside a spring of water' means a state when within the Human conjunction takes place involving Divine truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'a spring' as truth, dealt with in 2702, here Divine truth since the subject is the Lord. The state itself in which the conjunction takes place is meant by 'standing beside the spring'; and the fact that it was effected within the Human is evident from the train of thought.
Provender
In Exodus 32:20, see Strewed.
'To give provender to his donkey,' as in Genesis 42:27, signifies reflection upon scientific ideas, because 'provender' is the food with which donkeys are fed, consisting of straw and chaff, and so it denotes all reflection on scientific ideas, for reflection principally feeds them. 'Provender' signifies the good of scientific truths.
