They are a fundamental element of creation and a recurring motif throughout Scripture, representing both physical and spiritual realities. Creation and Order: The concept of waters is introduced in the very first chapter of Genesis. <a href="/genesis/1-2.htm">Genesis 1:2</a> states, "Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters." Here, waters are depicted as part of the primordial chaos that God orders into creation. On the second day, God separates the waters, creating the sky and establishing the earth's atmosphere (<a href="/genesis/1-6.htm">Genesis 1:6-7</a>). Judgment and Deliverance: Waters are also associated with divine judgment, as seen in the account of the Great Flood. In <a href="/genesis/7-17.htm">Genesis 7:17-24</a>, God uses the waters to cleanse the earth of its wickedness, sparing only Noah and his family. This event underscores the dual nature of waters as both destructive and purifying. Covenant and Promise: Following the flood, God establishes a covenant with Noah, symbolized by the rainbow, promising never to destroy the earth with a flood again (<a href="/genesis/9-11.htm">Genesis 9:11-15</a>). This covenant highlights the waters' role in God's redemptive plan and His faithfulness to His promises. Miracles and Provision: Throughout the Old Testament, God demonstrates His power over waters through miracles. In <a href="/exodus/14-21.htm">Exodus 14:21-22</a>, God parts the Red Sea, allowing the Israelites to escape from Egypt. This miraculous event signifies deliverance and God's sovereignty over creation. Similarly, in the wilderness, God provides water from a rock to quench the Israelites' thirst (<a href="/exodus/17-6.htm">Exodus 17:6</a>), illustrating His provision and care. Purification and Cleansing: Waters are frequently used in rituals of purification. In Levitical law, water is essential for cleansing from impurity (<a href="/leviticus/14-8.htm">Leviticus 14:8-9</a>). This ritual use of water foreshadows the spiritual cleansing that comes through faith in Christ. Spiritual Significance in the New Testament: In the New Testament, waters continue to hold deep spiritual significance. Jesus refers to Himself as the source of "living water" in <a href="/john/4-10.htm">John 4:10-14</a>, offering eternal life to those who believe in Him. This metaphor emphasizes the life-giving and sustaining power of Christ. Baptism: Baptism, a central Christian sacrament, involves water as a symbol of spiritual cleansing and rebirth. In <a href="/matthew/3-16.htm">Matthew 3:16</a>, Jesus Himself is baptized in the Jordan River, setting an example for His followers. Baptism represents the believer's identification with Christ's death, burial, and resurrection. Eschatological Imagery: In the book of Revelation, waters are part of the eschatological vision. <a href="/revelation/22.htm">Revelation 22:1</a> describes "the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb." This imagery points to the ultimate restoration and eternal life found in God's presence. Conclusion: Throughout Scripture, waters serve as a powerful symbol of God's creative power, judgment, provision, and salvation. They remind believers of God's sovereignty, faithfulness, and the promise of eternal life through Jesus Christ.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div>MEROM, WATERS OFme'-rom (me-merom; hudor Marron or hudor Merron): The place which was the scene of Joshua's victory over Jabin and his confederates (<a href="/joshua/11-7.htm">Joshua 11:7</a>), commonly identified with Lake Huleh in the upper part of the Jordan valley, but with doubtful propriety. Josephus says (Ant., V, i, 18) that the camp of the allies was at Beroth in upper Galilee, and that Beroth was not far from Kadesh, which is upon the summit of the Galilean hills. According to the Scriptural account, the pursuit was to Sidon and Hazor on the West of the mountains (see HAZOR), while the names of the confederates are those of places in lower Galilee and the maritime plain. It seems improbable that a force of chariots should be brought over to be hemmed in by the rugged mountains which border the narrow plain of Huleh on both sides, plains that are made still narrower by the swamps surrounding the lake (see JORDAN VALLEY) in Joshua's time, when they were much larger than they are now after having been filled with the accumulation of sediment brought down by mountain streams for 3,000 years. Conder, with much reason, supposes the "waters of Merom" to be the perennial stream Wady el-Melek, near Shimrom-Merom (Semunieh), 5 miles West of Nazareth. Were Lake Huleh referred to, the proper phrase would be Sea (yam) of Merom, rather than waters (mayim). George Frederick WrightWATERSwo'-terz (mayim, plural of may, "water"; in the New Testament hudor, "water"; kindunois potamon (<a href="/2_corinthians/11-26.htm">2 Corinthians 11:26</a>), the King James Version "perils of waters," is in the Revised Version (British and American) "perils of rivers"): In the New Testament there is frequent reference to the water of baptism. Pilate washes his hands with water to signify his guiltlessness. Jesus tells the Samaritan woman of the living water. The Lamb shall guide the redeemed unto fountains of waters of life. The uses of mayim are well classified in BDB, especially the figurative references, as follows: a symbol of distress, "when thou passest through the waters" (<a href="/isaiah/43-2.htm">Isaiah 43:2</a>); of force, "like the breach of waters" (<a href="/2_samuel/5-20.htm">2 Samuel 5:20</a>); of that which is overwhelming, "a tempest of mighty waters overflowing" (<a href="/isaiah/28-2.htm">Isaiah 28:2</a>); of fear, "The hearts of the people.... became as water" (<a href="/joshua/7-5.htm">Joshua 7:5</a>); of transitoriness, "Thou shalt remember it as waters that are passed away" (<a href="/job/11-16.htm">Job 11:16</a>); of refreshment, "as streams of water in a dry place" (<a href="/isaiah/32-2.htm">Isaiah 32:2</a>); of peace, "He leadeth me beside still waters" (<a href="/psalms/23-2.htm">Psalm 23:2</a>); of legitimate pleasures, "waters out of thine own cistern" (<a href="/proverbs/5-15.htm">Proverbs 5:15</a>); of illegitimate pleasures, "Stolen waters are sweet" (<a href="/proverbs/9-17.htm">Proverbs 9:17</a>); of that which is poured out abundantly, blood (<a href="/psalms/79-3.htm">Psalm 79:3</a>), wrath (<a href="/hosea/5-10.htm">Hosea 5:10</a>), justice (<a href="/amos/5-24.htm">Amos 5:24</a>), groanings (<a href="/job/3-24.htm">Job 3:24</a>).
