1586. 'That the whole of it was wall-watered' means that they, that is to say, goods and truths, are able to grow there. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'being well-watered', for which see what has appeared already in 108.

Galatians 3:5-9

Studie

      

5 He therefore who supplies the Spirit to you, and works miracles among you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?

6 Even as Abraham "believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness."

7 Know therefore that those who are of faith, the same are children of Abraham.

8 The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the Good News beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you all the nations will be blessed."

9 So then, those who are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.
