Where then do You get that living water?'"<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew word "bowr" primarily refers to a pit or a cistern. It is used in various contexts in the Old Testament, including natural pits, man-made cisterns for water storage, and metaphorically as a place of imprisonment or entrapment. The term can also denote a grave or a place of destruction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, cisterns were essential for water storage, especially in arid regions. These were often large, dug-out pits lined with plaster to hold rainwater. Pits were also used as makeshift prisons or places of confinement, as seen in the narratives of Joseph and Jeremiah. The imagery of a pit often symbolizes danger, death, or Sheol (the realm of the dead) in Hebrew poetry and prophecy.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">בּוֺר</font>
