AS in New Mexico and Arizona, water
is the most precious thing in Palestine.
and the laws which protect springs and
wells are severe. Most of the wells are
artificial. Rich men at great expense
have chiseled basins and reservoirs out
of the rocks to receive the flow from
springs. and in many places where no
springs could be found they have drilled
through the limestone a hundred feet,
and sometimes twice that distance to
the artesian basin. None but very rich
sheiks can afford such an expenditure;
nevertheless. they have not only been
the greatest benefactors Of their fellow
men, but those who have sunk wells and
built foundations have erected monu-
ments to their fame more enduring than
palaces or temples or shafts of granite.
The Temple OF Solomon has vanished for
ever, but the pools which he walled up
with masonry and filed with water still
remain. The wells that Abraham and
Jacob drilled in the rock as acts OF piety !
as well as power are as immortal as
their names. and will live forever, as
long as men feel thirst
According to a just custom OF the /
country. water rights could never be for /
feited. No man who owned a We'll might /
refuse his neighbor water for his fam
lily or his hocks. but the lord of the /
spring was inviolate; no creditor or enc
my could take his water lights away
from him. To injure and I'll up well I
was an objectionable crime. When the
Philistines threw earth and stones into
the well Of Abraham they intended to
challenge him to war Of determination
These customs and regulations remain
today.
