The stream brings the supply of life to the entire city.
Genesis 2:8-10 "And Jehovah God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there He put the man whom He had formed.And out of the ground Jehovah God caused to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, as well as the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. And a river went forth from Eden to water the garden, and from there it divided and became four branches."
The Scripture tells us that within this stream grows the tree of life. What is the tree of life? It is simply Christ as the life. Think of the many times the Scripture refers to a tree as a figure of Christ. The fact that this tree grows in the living water shows us that Christ as life is in the flowing of the Holy Spirit. Where the Holy Spirit flows, there Christ is found as the life. The Holy Spirit brings Christ to us as our life just as the stream of living water brings to the whole city the tree of life as the supply of life. Look once more at the picture. Here is a stream of living water, and within the stream, growing all the way, is the tree of life. Thus the stream brings the supply of life to the entire city. The Holy Spirit brings Christ to us as food, as the life supply.
Praise the Lord! ^u^
