The Samaritan Woman at the Well
Jesus and his disciples meanwhile took some time out. They went into the Judean countryside for a while, and from there they went on to a town called Sychar in Samaria. The disciples headed into town to buy some food, leaving Jesus alone for a while. Tired from the journey he sat down by Jacob’s well. Before long a Samaritan woman came to draw some water.
Jesus:
Would you give me some water to drink?
Woman:
What? You’re a Jew aren’t you? And your asking me for a drink!
The Jews and Samaritans were sworn enemies.
Jesus:
Well, you have a bucket to draw water, and I’m empty-handed.
Woman:
But I can’t… It isn’t right!
