John 4:39-42
_ _ many ... believed, etc. — The truth of John 4:35 begins to appear. These Samaritans were the foundation of the Church afterwards built up there. No miracle appears to have been wrought there (but unparalleled supernatural knowledge displayed): “we have heard Him ourselves” (John 4:42) sufficed to raise their faith to a point never attained by the Jews, and hardly as yet by the disciples — that He was “the Savior of the world” [Alford]. “This incident is further remarkable as a rare instance of the Lord’s ministry producing an awakening on a large scale” [Olshausen]. |
John 4:39
(7) And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
(7) The Samaritans most joyfully embrace that which the Jews most stubbornly rejected. |
- many:
John 10:41-42 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true. ... And many believed on him there.
John 11:45 Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.
|
- for:
John 4:29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
John 4:42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard [him] ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
