Commentary on John 4:29

Theological / Devotional

All things. The woman’s announcement was somewhat exaggerated. Apparently she reasoned that if Jesus knew the deep, dark secrets of her life, nothing else could be hid from Him.

This the Christ. For the connection between the evidence presented — Jesus’ supernatural knowledge — and the conclusion that He must be the Christ see on v. 26. Tactfully the woman states her discovery in the form of a question, and invites the villagers to go forth and examine the evidence for themselves. Compare Philip’s invitation to Nathanael: “Come and see” (see ch. 1:46).
