John 4:27
Jesus Reveals Himself to the Samaritan Woman This section tells what happened after Jesus talked with the Samaritan woman at the well. The disciples returned and were surprised to find him speaking with her. The woman left her water jar and went to tell others about Jesus. Meanwhile, Jesus taught his disciples about doing God’s work and explained that many people would come to believe in him as the Savior of the world because of the woman’s testimony and their own experience.v. 27: Just then, Jesus’ disciples returned and were amazed to find him talking with a woman, especially a Samaritan (John 4:27 a). In that culture, Jewish men did not normally speak with Samaritan women in public. But the disciples did not ask him why he was talking with her or what they had discussed. This shows their respect for Jesus, but it also shows how unusual and unexpected this conversation was.
