Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Inherent Immortality

The verse speaks of a "well of water springing up into everlasting life," which implies a *source* of life that is given, rather than an inherent, pre-existing immortality of the soul or spirit. The "everlasting life" is presented as a result of drinking this water, not as an intrinsic quality of the individual.
