John 4:1 - Forerunner Commentary

John 4:1

1 Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and ^abaptized more disciples than John

2 (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples),

3 He left Judea and departed again to Galilee.

4 But He needed to go through Samaria.

5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that ^aJacob ^bgave to his son Joseph.

6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
