This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
40. ἠρώτων. Kept beseeching (Joh 4:30-31; Joh 4:47). How different from His own people at Nazareth (Mat 13:58; Luk 4:29) and from the Jews at Jerusalem after many miracles and much teaching (Joh 5:18, &c.). And yet he had uncompromisingly pronounced against Samaritan claims (Joh 4:22). Comp. the thankful Samaritan leper (Luk 17:16-17).

μεῖναι. See on Joh 1:33. They wished him to take up his abode permanently with them, or at least for a time.
