Song of Solomon 4:15
You are a garden spring, a well of fresh water flowing down from Lebanon.
BSB
ASV
Thou art a fountain of gardens, A well of living waters, And flowing streams from Lebanon.
KJV
A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
And about mystical wells it remains for us, which we also find in the Song of Songs, as Scripture says: A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and flowing down from Lebanon. For if you pursue the depth of mysteries, the well appears to you as if the mystical wisdom is located in the profound: but if you desire to draw from the abundance of charity, which is greater and richer than faith and hope, then the fountain is for you.
Living water - Though my spouse be in some sort a fountain shut up, yet that is not so to be understood as if she kept her waters to herself, for she is like a fountain of living or running water, which flows into gardens, and makes its flowers and plants to flourish. The church conveys those waters of life which she receives from Christ to particular believers.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
