LESSON V........... Jesus at the Well
/ John 4. 5-26.
Then cometh he to q city of Samaria. whicl
> is called Sychar, near to the pacel of grount
that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
r Now Jacobs well was there. Jesus there
fore, being wearied with his journey, sat thu'
! on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw
water Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink
(For his disciples were gone away unto the
city to buy meat3
Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him
How is it that thou, being Jew, askest drink
of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the
Jews have no dealings with the Samarians.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her. If thou
knewest the gift of God, and who it is that
saith to thee, Give me 10 drink; thou wouldst
have asked of him, and he would have given
thee living water.
IL The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast
nothing to draw with, and the we'll is deep:
from whence then hast thou that living water !?
II Art thou greater than our father Jacob
| which gave us the well, and drank thereof him
self, and his children, and his cattle?
| 13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whose
ever drinketh of this water shall thirst again.
IA But whosoever drinketh of the water that
I shall give him shall never thirst; but the wat
er that shall give him shall be in him well
of water springing up into everlasting life.
Is The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me
this water, that thirst not, neither come hith-
er to draw.
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband,
and come hither.
II The woman answered and said, I have no
husband, Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well
said have no husband:
Is For thou hast had five husbands; and he
whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in
that saidst thou truly.
10 The woman saith unto him, Sir, perceive
that thou art a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain;
and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where
men ought to worship.
81 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, |
the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this
mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the
Father.
% Ye worship We know not what; we know |
what we worship; for salvation is of the Jews |
% But the hour cometh, and now is, when |
the true worshipers shall worship the Father in |
spirit and in TRUTH for the father seeketh such
to worship him.
"a God is spirit; and they that worship him
must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman saith unto him, know that |
Messias cometh, which is called Christ; when
he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus said unto her, I that speak unto thee
am he.
