ヨハネによる福音書 4:19 JC

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - John 4:1-99

John 4 THE CLOSING PARAGRAPHS of the third chapter spring out of the intermeddling of the Jews in the matter of John’s baptism, and his reaction to it: this chapter opens with the Lord’s reaction to their interference. John gladly took the place of decreasing that his Master might increase. The Master withdrew Himself to Galilee lest rivalry should be instituted, which would be so hurtful to His servant. Such was His thoughtful care for John. Moreover the Lord himself would have been belittled... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - John 4:19-24

A question as to true worship: v. 19. The woman saith unto Him, Sir, I perceive that Thou art a prophet. v. 20. Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. v. 21. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe Me, the hour cometh when ye shall neither in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem worship the Father. v. 22. Ye worship ye know not what; we know what we worship; for salvation is of the Jews. v. 23. But the hour cometh, and... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - John 4:15-26

the True Worship of the Father of All John 4:15-26 What a train of memories our Lord’s words evoked! A spasm of remorse seized the woman, as she remembered the grave within her heart where her first love lay buried, trampled down by the wild crew of later passion. But why awaken such memories? Why open the cupboard and bid that skeleton step down? It could not be otherwise! Christ was there not to enter into an argument but to awaken the dormant conscience and save. The woman evaded the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - John 4:1-54

The words, "He must needs pass through Samaria" are arresting. The final explanation must be found in His dealing with the woman of Samaria. In itself, it is a radiant revelation of His method as He led this woman step by step from an almost flippant carelessness into a confession of discipleship. It was while dealing with her that the disciples, who had gone away to find food, returned, and they were amazed to see Him talking to a woman. With love for Him, they sought to persuade Him to eat.... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - John 4:1-30

The Woman at the Well John 4:1-30 INTRODUCTORY WORDS As we enter this remarkable story, we wish to suggest three distinct things concerning our Lord. 1. The Lord weary and worn. We read that "being wearied with His journey, [He] sat thus on the well." This picture of Christ is a picture of Him in His humanity, that is, in His body which was similar to our own and which knew the same hunger, weariness, and exhaustion which we know. We cannot but think of Him as the Holy One, and yet He was... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 4:4-42

The Samaritan Woman (John 4:4-42 ). In this story of the Samaritan woman in John 4:4-42 Jesus depicts Himself as the Gift of God Who can give men living water (John 4:10), and can thus give men a spring of water within which will well up to eternal life (John 4:14). This is in line with the promise that in God is the ‘fountain of life’ in Psalms 36:9, and the indication that God is the spring of living waters in Jeremiah 2:13. Thus Jesus is here portraying Himself as fulfilling what God would... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 4:19-20

John 4:19 ‘The woman says to him, “Sir, I see that you are a prophet.” John 4:20 “Our fathers worshipped in this mountain, and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.”“Our fathers worshipped in this mountain, and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.” Her next comment reveals that she clearly felt that between Him and her there could be little agreement. They disagreed on crucial points. He could really have nothing to say to her. She... read more

IV. 1– 42. Christ in Samaria. John 4:1-Ezekiel : . Christ and the Samaritan Woman.— The Lord (for the title cf. John 6:23, John 11:2, John 20:20, John 21:7, with certain parts of Lk., e.g. Luke 18:6 *), having learned that the Pharisees are aware of the success of His baptism, administered by His disciples, retires to Galilee, to avoid opposition which might lead to a premature crisis. This obliged Him to pass through Samaria, unless He chose the longer route through Peræ a, often adopted... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - John 4:19

Whose office is to reveal the will of God, and to whom God revealeth secret things; one to whom the Lord maketh known himself in a vision, and speaketh in a dream, Numbers 12:6. The woman’s reply seemeth to signify both. Her acknowledgment of Christ as a prophet, upon his telling her secret things, justifieth her looking upon him as one to whom God revealed things not known ordinarily to men; and this report of her meaning appeareth by what she said John 4:29, to her fellow citizens, Come, see... read more
