pege denotes a water source or flow, including life-giving water and a bodily flow.

The term most often denotes water sources named in settings of springs, wells, rivers, and water that may pour out or be absent. It also occurs in statements about water of life and once in the clause describing a bodily flow of blood.

1. Water source or spring · dominant

   The noun names water sources in varied physical settings: in 2 Peter 2:17 the nominative plural occurs in the statement about waterless springs, while in James 3:11 the nominative singular is the source that does not pour sweet and bitter water from one opening. In John 4:6 the APB renders the setting as a "well," and Revelation 14:7, Revelation 16:4, and Revelation 8:10 place plural forms among waters, rivers, and springs.

   Mark 5:29

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across these verses, the APB uses "springs," "well," and "flow of blood," and it speaks of "the spring of the water of life." These renderings show the verse contexts rather than fixing a separate English equivalent in every occurrence.
