AVTLHSATE NUN KAI FERETE TW ARXITPIKLINW

Question: Where is the water being drawn from?

Does the verb (and context) demand that the water is being drawn
from a place other than the jars which have just been filled? Does
the NUN indicate that in addition to drawing the water for the jars
that now water should be drawn (again) and taken to the steward?

Or does the context suggest this is all reading way too much into a
few words. The water was drawn from the jars at hand and not from
another location.

See Carson, W&H, who hold to the former.

Thanks for your thoughts.

A lurker no more,
