Exegesis
The source is specified by ek tes peges {ἐκ τῆς πηγῆς | ek tês pē-gēs} ‘from the spring’, with the genitive chain tou hydatos tes zoes {τοῦ ὕδατος τῆς ζωῆς | toû hý-da-tos tês zō-ēs} ‘of the water of life’, linking the life-giving metaphor to water imagery.
In context — Revelation 21:6
And He said to me, “It has come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the one who thirsts, I will give from the spring of the water of life as a gift .”
