During Jesus’ time,

women are inferior to


men.

Background Samaritans and Jews


were enemies.

Adulterers were shunned


by people.
Yet Jesus stayed and
waited for her.
• 4 Now he had to go through
Samaria. 5 So he came to a town
in Samaria called Sychar, near the
plot of ground Jacob had given to
his son Joseph. 6 Jacob’s well was
there, and Jesus, tired as he was
from the journey, sat down by
the well. It was about noon.

2 Kinds of Water

•Water from the well. (temporary)


•Living from Jesus. (Eternal)
Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty
13 

again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never


thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring
of water welling up to eternal life.”
Jesus is inviting us to
drink the living water.
• Why drink?
• Drinking is
personal.
• I can not drink
for you.
But first we need to acknowledge the need,
• 15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get
thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
• 16 He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
• 17 “I have no husband,” she replied.
• Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no
husband. 18 The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you
now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.”
OOOOPS!
• 19 “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet. 20 Our
ancestors worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the
place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.”
• 21 “Woman,” Jesus replied, “believe me, a time is coming when you
will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in
Jerusalem. 22 You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we
worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23 Yet a time
is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship
the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of
worshipers the Father seeks. 24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must
worship in the Spirit and in truth.”
• 25 The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming.
When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
• 26 Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I am he.”
