Such a garden is used by the prophet to symbolize the Spirit-filled soul. He says, "And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not." Isa. 58:11. In order to have such a happy experience, however, the children of God must meet certain conditions.

When Nineveh repented in the time of Jonah, it was by each man "turning from his evil way and from the violence which was in their hands." When Nahum announces the final destruction, it is on "the bloody city, full of lies and robbery." In the emblematic language of prophecy, the lion is taken as the fittest among animals to symbolize Assyria, even at this late period of her history.

Because you, Philippus, interceded for him though you were in a position of command, because Ptolemy knows your ability you were sent to distant Pelusium, and there we should be still " "Guard your tongue, wife!" interrupted the old general in a tone of grave rebuke.
