JOHN CHAPTER 4



Joh_4:1-26 Christ talketh with a woman of Samaria, and revealeth

himself unto her.

Joh_4:27-30 His disciples marvel; the woman calleth the men of

her city to see him.

Joh_4:31-38 Christ showeth his own zeal to do God’s work, and the

blessedness of his disciples, who were to reap the

fruit of his labours.

Joh_4:39-42 Many Samaritans believe on him.

Joh_4:43-54 He goeth into Galilee, and healeth a nobleman’s son

who lay sick at Capernaum.



Our Saviour knew as God, from that omniscience which is

inseparable from the Divine nature, or as man, by the relation of

others, that the Pharisees, (who had the greatest stroke in the

sanhedrim), and the government of the church of the Jews, had received

an information concerning him, that he had, by his doctrine which he

preached, and confirmed by miraculous operations,



made and (by his

disciples) baptized more disciples than John, thereby initiating

them into a new church.
