Numbers 20:6

Studie

       

6 And Moses and Aaron leaving the multitude, went into the tabernacle of the covenant, and fell flat upon the ground, and cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord God, hear the cry of this people, and open to them thy treasure, a fountain of living water, that being satisfied, they may cease to murmur. And the glory of the Lord appeared over them.

Wells

  

''To stop up wells,' as inGenesis 26:15, denotes to be unwilling to know truths, and to deny them, and so to obliterate them. In Genesis 21, 'wells' signify doctrines, both those disputed and not disputed. Without this significance digging wells and disputing about them would have been too trivial to be mentioned in the divine Word.
