John 4:1-7 ▼

1 And so, when Jesus realized that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made more disciples and baptized more than John,

2 (though Jesus himself was not baptizing, but only his disciples)

3 he left behind Judea, and he traveled again to Galilee.

4 Now he needed to cross through Samaria.

5 Therefore, he went into a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the estate which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6 And Jacob’s well was there. And so Jesus, being tired from the journey, was sitting in a certain way on the well. It was about the sixth hour.

7 A woman of Samaria arrived to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me to drink.”
