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 4:31-38

The harvest in the kingdom of God: v. 31. In the mean while His disciples prayed Him, saying, Master, eat. v. 32. But He said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of. v. 33. Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought Him aught to eat? v. 34. Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of Him that sent Me, and to finish His work. v. 35. Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - John 4:32

John THE WEARIED CHRIST Joh_4:6 , Joh_4:32 . Two pictures result from these two verses, each striking in itself, and gaining additional emphasis by the contrast. It was during a long hot day’s march that the tired band of pedestrians turned into the fertile valley. There, whilst the disciples went into the little hill-village to purchase, if they could, some food from the despised inhabitants, Jesus, apparently too exhausted to accompany them, ‘sat thus on the well.’ That little word thus... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - John 4:27-38

the Rewards of Service John 4:27-38 As soon as Jesus opens the living spring within our hearts, we abandon our water pots. When we are saved, we must hasten with the tidings to those with whom we have sinned. First find Christ for yourself; then say, “Come and see.” He who knows us with an unchallengeable knowledge cannot be other than the Christ. The disciples were naturally astonished when they came upon this interview. They might have asked the woman what she was seeking, and the Master... 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 4:28-42

Missions in the Gospels John 4:28-42 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The fourth chapter of John contains one of the most marvelous stories of the Word of God. It is beyond doubt a revelation of the heart of God toward the lost, as set forth in the story of conversion and ministry of the woman of Samaria. Remember that while the disciples had gone to the city to get meat, the Lord had met this woman, and had brought to her the knowledge of Himself as the Saviour of men. While she was returning to the city,... read more

Peter Pett

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 4:31-33

‘Meanwhile the disciples begged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.” But he said to them, “I have meat to eat that you do not know about.” The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has any man brought him anything to eat?” ’ The disciples meanwhile begged Jesus to eat. They could not understand His reluctance. But His mind was on other things. He was waiting in expectancy for needy men to come to Him. So He replied, ‘I have food to eat that you know nothing about’ (compare Deuteronomy 8:3; Matthew... read more

John 4:27-Zechariah : . The Return of the Disciples.— The disciples return with the food they have bought. They are surprised that Jesus is talking with a woman ( cf. Pirke Aboth, i. 5, “ Prolong not discourse with a woman” ). The woman returns to the city, and her report leads the men to “ come and see.” Meanwhile the disciples offer the food to Jesus. But His experiences have banished physical hunger. He explains that His true life is supported by doing His Father’ s work. Signs of... read more
