Και συνελαβεν ακομη και εγεννησεν υιον· και ειπε, Τωρα ταυτην την φοραν ο ανηρ μου θελει ενωθη μετ' εμου, διοτι εγεννησα εις αυτον τρεις υιους· δια τουτο ωνομασεν αυτον Λευι.

3765. 'Behold, a well' means the Word. This is clear from the meaning of 'a well' as the Word and also as doctrine drawn from the Word, dealt with in 2702, 3096, 3424. The Word is called 'a well' here because the subject is the natural, which by itself can do no more than understand the literal sense of the Word. But the Word is called 'a spring' when the subject is the rational, by which one is able to see the internal sense of the Word.
