Exodus (Program #42) – The Water of Life in Resurrection
Every record in the Bible has a spiritual significance. We shouldn’t try to understand any portion of the biblical record simply according to the black and white letter. Let’s take Exodus 16 as an example. This is a chapter revealing the giving of manna to the children of Israel. Surely manna is something mysterious and spiritual. Chapter 17 shows us how God provided water for the children of Israel as Moses struck or smote the rock in the wilderness and the water flow from the clefts. Surely this also bears tremendous spiritual significance. The spiritual reality of the water flowing from the smitten rock is our story today of this life study of the Bible.
We are going to pick up Witness Lee’s own speaking for our introduction today. He make a very striking point about interpreting the Bible. Of course, we do believe it literally word for word. But we also don’t want to be blind to its spiritual and mysterious implication.
