John 4:10

John 4:10 If thou knewest the gift of God, etc. The great gift of God is not water, not even peace of soul, but Christ himself, God's "unspeakable gift" (II Corinthians 9:15), "God gave his only begotten Son" (John 3:16). Had she known, the Savior declares, "Thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water". Observe: (1) That Christ asks a favor in order to confer a greater one. (2) The well and the water suggest the thirst of the soul and the waters of life. Living water. Water of life. The woman thought he meant running water.
