in בראשית כא לא , the term means "well."

in דברים א ה , the same three ordered letters, vocalized in essentially the
same manner, now means "explain."

a. what is the tie that binds the two different meanings? "dig deep?" ... is
there a tie that binds?

b. and does "explain" imply a separate unadorned list of התורה elsewhere,
without commentary?

regards,

fred burlingame
