This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
39. πολλοὶ ἐπ. εἰς αὐ. Strong proof of the truth of Joh 4:35. These Samaritans outstrip the Jews, and even the Apostles, in their readiness to believe. The Jews rejected the testimony of their own Scriptures, of the Baptist, of Christ’s miracles and teaching. The Samaritans accept the testimony of the woman, who had suddenly become an Apostle to her countrymen. The miraculous knowledge displayed by Jesus for a second time (Joh 1:49) produces immediate and complete conviction, and in this case the conviction spreads to others.
