6785. 'And he even drew water for us' means that the instruction it gave came from the Word. This is clear from the meaning of 'drawing' as giving instruction in the truths of faith and bringing enlightenment, dealt with in 3058, 3071. Its coming from the Word is meant by 'the well' from which they drew water. For the meaning of 'the well' as the Word, see 6774.
