Revelation22:1
1 AND he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal , proceeding out of the throne of God, and of the Lamb .
The Angel who shewed him all before-mentioned, shewed him a pure River.
No place can be [illegible: 1 letter]appy without the Accommodation of Water: Those places have the best Accommodation of it that are near a River, especially a pure River; to let us know, that in Heaven there shall be no want of any thing that can make the Saints happy. It is described as having by it, or running through it, a pure River, whose Water is clear; and no ordinary Water, but such as giveth, and preserveth Life: What could this signifie, but the pure and unmixed Joys of Heaven,
flowing from the Saints there injoying of God, and Jesus Christ?
