Commentary on John 4:19

Theological / Devotional

Thou art a prophet. The woman evades a discussion of her own life by changing the subject of conversation to a line of thought that has no personal implications. If she can involve Jesus in a religious dispute, it will spare her the embarrassment of confessing the dark deeds of her own past.
