Study note

On the last and greatest day of the Feast of Tabernacles, priests carried water from the pool of Siloam to the temple each morning and poured it out at the altar, recalling God's provision in the wilderness and praying for rain. On that day Jesus stood up and publicly invited anyone thirsty to come to him and drink.
