על עין המים ב' במסורה דין ואידך הנה אנכי נצב על עין המים. שטוב הוא להתפלל על המים כדכתיב מקול מחצצים בין משאבים שם יתנו צדקות ה', וכן התפלה נמשלה למים דכתיב שפכי כמים לבך: "Upon the well of water" - In the Tanakh, it is said: "And he said, 'Hagar, Sarah's maid, from where did you come, and where are you going?' And she said, 'I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarah.'" (Gen. 16:8) Here and there, behold, I am standing over the well of water. It is good to pray over the water, as it is written, "the voice of splendor is in the waters" (Psalm 29:3), meaning that there the righteous give charity in the name of God. Similarly, prayer is compared to water, as it is written, "Pour out your heart like water before the presence of God" (Lamentations 2:19).
