João 4:39 Meaning and Commentary

John 4:39

And many of the Samaritans of that city
Of Sychar, which was a city of Samaria;

believed on him;
that he was the true Messiah he had told the woman he was; and she put it to them whether he was or not: before they saw him, or had any conversation with him themselves, they believed in him; see ( John 20:29 ) ;

for the saying of the woman which testified, he told me all that
ever I did:
the account she gave was so plain, and honest, and disinterested, that they could not but give credit to it; and since the person was an utter stranger to her, and yet had laid before her the whole series of her past life and conversation, they concluded he could be no other than the Messiah, who should tell all things; and being of quick understanding or smell, was able to disclose the secrets of men.

João 4:39 In-Context

37 Assim é verdadeiro o ditado: ‘Um semeia, e outro colhe’.

38 Eu os enviei para colherem o que vocês não cultivaram. Outros realizaram o trabalho árduo, e vocês vieram a usufruir do trabalho deles”.

39 Muitos samaritanos daquela cidade creram nele por causa do seguinte testemunho dado pela mulher: “Ele me disse tudo o que tenho feito”.

40 Assim, quando se aproximaram dele, os samaritanos insistiram em que ficasse com eles, e ele ficou dois dias.

41 E, por causa da sua palavra, muitos outros creram.
