『以色列人从那里起行，到了比珥；从前耶和华对摩西说，招聚百姓，我好给他们水喝…的…这井。 …以色列人唱这歌说，井阿，涌上水来！你们要向这井歌唱！这井是众首领和民中的尊贵人，用权杖用扶杖所挖所掘的。 …』(民数记21:16-18)
比珥(Beer，希伯来语בְּאֵר)，意思是井，有别于天然的水泉。一般出现在复合的地名里，如比珥以琳、别示巴。比珥的地点不能确定，但因这井是众首领用杖所挖掘出来的，也是以色列人再度从加低斯起行后的第五安营之处，有些学者认为它可能位于亚嫩溪谷北面，在死海东面约56公里，摩押极北的边境上。挖掘这里的泥土，可以很容易找到水。
比珥的井豫表基督在我们里面。挖井表征挖去「脏污」，就是我们心—心思、情感、意志和良心—中的阻碍，使那灵作活水能从我们里面涌上来，并涌流通畅。
“And from there they journeyed to Beer; …Then Israel sang this song: Spring up, O well! Sing to it! The well, which the leaders sank, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, with their staffs.” (Numbers 21:16-18)
Beer (בְּאֵר in Hebrew) means a well. In the Bible, it usually appears in compound names of places, such as Beer-elim, Beer-sheba and Beeroth. The exact location of Beer is not certain. Because the well was dug by the leaders and nobles of the people with their scepter and staffs, some scholars believe that Beer may be located about 56 kilometers east of the Dead Sea, in the north of the Arnon Valley, where water could be easily found by digging the soil.
Spiritually, the well at Beer typifies Christ within us. The digging of the well signifies the digging away of the “dirt”, the barriers in our heart – our mind, emotion, will, and conscience – so that the Spirit as the living water may spring up within us and flow freely.
