Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, water was a precious and vital resource, often scarce and highly valued. It was essential for agriculture, daily living, and religious rituals. In Jewish tradition, water was used for purification rites, symbolizing spiritual cleansing and renewal. The scarcity of water in the region made it a powerful symbol of life and sustenance. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origina prim. word Definition water NASB Translation water (63), waters (13).
