(Lesson 4484)(05-13-24) John 4:16-19
“Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly. The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.”
In today’s quote, Jesus deepened His conversation with the Samaritan woman at the well by instructing her to go and bring her husband. The woman responded that she has no husband. Jesus then revealed His knowledge of her personal life, telling her that she has had five husbands, and the man she now has is not actually her husband. That acknowledgment revealed Jesus' prophetic insight and surprised the woman, leading her to imagine that Jesus was a prophet. Her realization marked a turning point in the conversation, as it shifted from a discussion about literal drinking water to deeper spiritual truths.~
