Apostolic Summary
Context and coherence (Nehemiah 8:8)

1. Our portion from John 4 provides such an interesting narrative in the life and ministry of Yeshua.
   1. This is one of only a few examples of Yeshua having private conversations with others. 
      1. Nicodemus, the men on the road to Emmaus, etc.
      2. In each of these encounters we see that conversing with Yeshua always leads to swimming out into deep waters. 
2. Isaiah 9:9 The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.
3. 1 Kings 16:23-25 In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri began to reign over Israel for twelve years. He reigned six years in Tirzah. 24 He bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, Samaria, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill. 25 Omri did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, and dealt wickedly above all who were before him.
   1. Jewish Encyclopedia: SAMARIA (Hebrew, “Shomeron“; Aramaic, “Shamerayin,” Ezra iv. 10, 17) (Redirected from SEBASTE.) https://jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/13367-sebaste and SAMARITANS https://jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/13059-samaritans
      • 9th c. B.C.: Omri founds Samaria; Ahab’s reign; later sieges & prophetic condemnations.
        • According to 1 Kings 16:23–24, King Omri (Ahab’s father) bought the hill of Shomeron and built a city named Samaria, making it the northern capital of Israel.
        • Omri’s dynasty gave Samaria its name and centralized northern worship and politics away from Jerusalem.
        • The city became the heart of the northern kingdom’s religious and political identity, a rival to Judah and Jerusalem.
        • Jezebel was a Phoenician princess, daughter of Ethbaal, king of Sidon (1 Kings 16:31).
        • Through her, Ahab allied Israel with Phoenicia (Tyre and Sidon) which was politically beneficial, but religiously disastrous.
        • Jezebel introduced Baal and Asherah worship into the royal cult at Samaria.
        • She built a temple to Baal in Samaria (1 Kings 16:32-33).
        • She persecuted the prophets of YHWH, most famously during the Elijah confrontation at Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18).
          • This marks the first major infusion of foreign religion into the state apparatus of northern Israel and the same syncretistic pattern that later defined Samaritan religion as seen through the eyes of Judean writers
      • 722/721 B.C.: Assyrian capture (Sargon II).
      • 4th–3rd c. B.C.: Punished by Alexander; Macedonian colony; dismantled/destroyed under Ptolemy & Demetrius.
      • c. 107 B.C.: John Hyrcanus destroys it.
      • 27/25 B.C.: Herod rebuilds as Sebaste, builds Temple of Augustus.
        • Sebaste = Samaria reborn under Herod: a showcase of Herod’s Romanizing urbanism and imperial loyalty (temple to Augustus, new circuit, coinage).
        • Herod’s city was a Romanized administrative center, not the religious heartland.
      • 1st c. A.D.: Herodian troops of Sebaste; province changes hands (Archelaus → procurators → Agrippa I → procurators).
      • 193–211 A.D.: Severus makes it a Roman colony; later decline with rise of Nablus/Shechem.
      • 4th–12th c. A.D.: Pilgrim/tradition notices (Eusebius, Jerome, Benjamin of Tudela).
      • Today: Sebastiya village at the site.
   2. John 4:4-5 He needed to pass through Samaria. 5 So he came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son, Joseph.
      1. By the 1st century, the Samaritan population and worship were centered at Gerizim whose temple once rivaled Jerusalem’s.
      2. Sychar is identified with the area near Shechem/Nablus, at the foot of Mount Gerizim which the sacred mountain of the Samaritans.
      3. Sychar is a village of Samaria located near Jacob’s well.
      4. The fertile Samarian basin is known for abundant springs.
      5. Samaritans, emphasizing the Torah, saw the Torah itself as life-giving.
      6. Sychar may be an intentional corruption, as if from the Hebrew sheker “falsehood,” or shikor “drunkard” (cf. Isaiah 28:1; Isaiah 28:7) and called such by the Jews at the time as a nickname for this village.
   3. John 4:9 The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?”
      1. The rejection of Samaritans by Jews after the Manasseh–Sanballat schism (Ezra–Nehemiah period of Nehemiah 13:28-30).
         1. Manasseh, a Jerusalem priest, marries Sanballat’s daughter and is expelled.
         2. He establishes a rival temple on Mount Gerizim, founding a northern priestly line.
      2. Ezra-Nehemiah’s reforms excluded them from the Jerusalem community.
      3. The Hasmoneans under John Hyrcanus destroyed the Gerizim temple (~107 B.C.), deepening enmity.
      4. By the 1st century, rabbinic opinion often deemed Samaritan vessels impure.
      5. Yeshua asking for water violated social and purity boundaries rooted in centuries of mutual hostility.
      6. Samaritans were seen as Torah-only Israelites, not Gentiles but not fully Jewish either.
   4. John 4:16-19 Yeshua said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.” 17 The woman answered [and said to him](mss), “I have no husband.” Yeshua said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’ 18 for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.” 19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
      1. Individual (Literal) = Five literal men in her past + Current live-in partner + Prophetic revelation about her personal life
      2. Representative of the Samaritan people (Symbolic) = The five pagan nations/gods of 2 Kings 17  (Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim) + Present Roman imperial rule and Samaritan worship of YHWH on Gerizim (not fully covenantal) + Prophetic diagnosis of Samaria’s religious history
         1. 1 Kings 17:24-34 The king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, from Cuthah, from Avva, and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the sons of Israel; and they possessed Samaria and lived in its cities. 25 So it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they didn’t fear YHWH. Therefore YHWH sent lions among them, which killed some of them. 26 Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The nations which you have carried away and placed in the cities of Samaria don’t know the law of the elohim of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them; and behold, they kill them, because they don’t know the law of the elohim of the land.” 27 Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, “Carry there one of the priests whom you brought from there; and let him† go and dwell there, and let him teach them the law of the elohim of the land.” 28 So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear YHWH. 29 However every nation made elohim of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they lived. 30 The men of Babylon made Sukkot Benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima, 31 and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the elohim of Sepharvaim. 32 So they feared YHWH, and also made from among themselves priests of the high places for themselves, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places. 33 They feared YHWH, and also served their own elohim, after the ways of the nations from among whom they had been carried away. 34 To this day they do what they did before. They don’t fear YHWH, and they do not follow the statutes, or the ordinances, or the law, or the commandment which YHWH commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel
   5. John 4:20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.
      1. The Gerizim Temple (built c. 4th century B.C.) replaced Jerusalem as the Samaritan holy place.
      2. Jewish Encyclopedia dates its construction to the Persian or early Hellenistic period under Sanballat and Manasseh, and its destruction by Hyrcanus (~107 B.C.).
   6. John 4:22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
      1. Samaritans preserved only the Torah, omitting prophets and writings in the Samaritan Pentateuch (SP) https://thecord.life/wp-content/uploads/samaritan-pentateuch.pdf)
      2. SP not an entirely different Torah, but a textual recension of the same Torah known in Jewish and Christian Bibles, containing about 6,000 differences from the Masoretic Text.
      3. The SP forms the entire canon of Samaritan scripture. They do not accept the Prophets or Writings, only the Torah of Moses, and they interpret the rest of faith, law, and theology through that alone.
      4. SP arose from the Gerizim priesthood after their schism from Jerusalem.
      5. SP predates the Masoretic Text’s final form and represents an authentic ancient recension of the Hebrew Torah.
      6. SP became known to the world only in the 17th century, but it preserves one of the oldest surviving textual witnesses to the Torah of Moses.
   7. John 4:25 The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah comes, he who is called Messiah. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”
      1. Highlights the Samaritan doctrine of the Taheb, a restorer or returning prophet based on Deuteronomy 18:15.
      2. Samaritans rejected the Mishnah-style halakhic elaboration later codified by the rabbis.
      3. Samaritan theology lacks a resurrection doctrine until very late and sees the “afterlife” mainly as moral legacy or divine remembrance.
      4. The Taheb (תאהב) meaning “Restorer,” “Returner,” or “He who returns” is the Samaritan messianic figure, roughly analogous to the Jewish Moshiach (מָשִׁיחַ) but with a distinct origin, function, and eschatology grounded entirely in the Torah, not in the Prophets or Writings.
      5. Deuteronomy 18:15 YHWH your Elohim will raise up to you a prophet from among you, of your brothers, like me. You will listen to him.
         1. Because the Samaritans accept only the Torah, this verse is the highest and only scriptural basis for their messianic hope.
         2. They reject all prophetic or apocalyptic elaborations from Isaiah, Jeremiah, or Daniel (since they don’t recognize those books).
         3. So the Taheb is seen as:
            1. A prophet like Moses,
            2. Raised up by YHWH,
            3. Who restores the Torah,
            4. Renews covenant faithfulness centered on Mount Gerizim.
            5. John 4:21 Yeshua said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father.
   8. “Living Water” of John 4 to the “Holy Spirit” of Acts 8:5-25
      1. John 4:23-24 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers. 24 Elohim is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
      2. Act 8:5-8 Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and proclaimed to them the Messiah. 6 The crowds listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he did. 7 For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed. 8 There was great joy in that city.
      3. Acts 8:9-13 But there was a certain man, Shimon by name, who used to practice sorcery in the city, and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one, 10 to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is that power of Elohim which is called Great.” 11 They listened to him, because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
         1. Jewish Encyclopedia describes a long Samaritan tendency toward syncretism (Assyrian colonist religion + Israelite tradition).
         2. Shimon’s sorcery and claim to be “the great power of Elohim” mirror that syncretistic spirituality, blending mystery religion, magic, and theology.
         3. Later Christian writers (Justin Martyr, Irenaeus) identify Simon Magus as a Samaritan from Gitta, consistent with Acts 8.
         4. Acts 8:12-13 But when they believed Philip as he preached good news concerning the kingdom of Elohim and the name of Yeshua Messiah, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Shimon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.
         5. Acts 8:14-23 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of Elohim, they sent Kepha and John to them, 15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit; 16 for he had not yet fallen upon any of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Yeshua. 17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. 18 Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money, 19 saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.” 20 But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of Elohim with money. 21 You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before Elohim. 22 Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask the Lord if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity.”

Apostolic Exhortation
Counsel, comfort, and encouragement (Acts 13:14-15)

1. This portion provides a glimpse into how Yeshua evangelized and taught.
   • #1 — Strike up a conversation over something mundane.
     1. “Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Judeans; this man came to Yeshua at night and said to Him, ‘Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him’” (John 3:1-2).
     2. “A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, ‘Give Me a drink’” (John 4:7).
     3. “While [the men on their way to Emmaus] were talking and discussing, Yeshua Himself approached and began traveling with them. But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him. And He said to them, ‘What are these words that you are exchanging with one another as you are walking?’ And they came to a stop, looking sad” (Luk. 24:15-16).
   • #2 – Soon after, cut through the small talk by making a statement that confounds the other person.
     1. “Yeshua responded and said to him, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born from above he cannot see the kingdom of God’” (John 3:3).
     2. “Jesus replied to her, ‘If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to you, “Give Me a drink,” you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water’” (John 4:10).
     3. “And then He said to them, ‘You foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Was it not necessary for the Messiah to suffer these things and to come into His glory?’” (Luk. 24:25-26).
   • #3 – Leverage the open and curious state of the person’s mind to lead them into the deeper truths of salvation.
     1. 1.  “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
        2. “God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth” (John 4:24).
        3. “Then beginning with Moses and with all the Prophets, He explained to them the things written about Himself in all the Scriptures” (Luk. 24:27).

KEY POINT:

The fruit of discipleship comes only when the seed of truth is planted deep into good soil.

1. Yeshua had a unique method of teaching of His disciples (including you and me). 
2. His goal was not to convey mere facts and knowledge but understanding.
   1. “’When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. But the one sown with seed on the good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces, some a hundred, some sixty, and some thirty times as much’” (Mat.13:19,23).
   2. “After Yeshua called the crowd to Him, He said to them, ‘Hear and understand!’” (Mat.15:10).
   3. “Jesus said, ‘Are you also still lacking in understanding?’” (Mat.15:16).
3. Truth needs to reshape our thinking and lead to a change in behavior.
   1. “So, Yeshua was saying to those Judeans who had believed Him, ‘If you continue in My word, then you are truly My disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:31-32).
4. Richard Wurmbrand once said, “God is Truth. The Bible is the truth about the Truth. Theology is the truth about the truth about the Truth”.

KEY POINT:

Beware the pitfalls of theology without the Spirit, knowledge without application, and truth without wisdom.

1. Let’s return to our portion and try to make application from this woman’s encounter with Truth at Jacob’s Well.
2. The first important principle in learning from the Master is that His Words are not His own.
   1. “So, Jesus answered them and said, ‘My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me” (John 7:16).
3. The Lord regularly criticized the people for not knowing the words of the Father.
   1. “Yeshua said to them, ‘Is this not the reason you are mistaken, that you do not understand the Scriptures nor the power of God?’” (Mar. 12:24).
   2. “And then He said to them, ‘You foolish (#453) men and slow of heart (#1021) to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!’” (Acts 24:25). 
      1. G453. anoétos – “unintelligent; unmindful”.
         1. Lexicon: The term portrays more than mere intellectual dullness; it denotes a culpable failure to perceive spiritual reality that has already been made clear. The word is frequently paired with ideas of stubbornness, self-reliance, or slowness of heart, highlighting the moral dimension behind the lack of understanding.
      2. G1021. bradus  — “slow”.
         1. Lexicon: The word captures not intellectual inability but moral reluctance; the slowness concerns the heart, not the mind.
4. The Lord is more gracious with the Samaritan woman, probably because she was not educated in the scriptures.
   1. “Yeshua replied to her, ‘If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to you, “Give Me a drink,” you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water’” (John 4:10).
5. The Samaritan woman seems unable to make the spiritual connection with Yeshua’s teaching and because He is unable to lead her to understanding through teaching, Yeshua turns to prophecy.
   1. “He said to her, ‘Go, call your husband and come here.’ The woman answered and said to Him, ‘I have no husband.’ Jesus said to her, ‘You have correctly said, “I have no husband”; for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; this which you have said is true.’ The woman said to Him, ‘Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet’” (John 4:16-19).
6. Unlike the Samaritan woman, we have no excuse for remaining ignorant of what God has already spoken in His Word.
   1. We should not need a prophetic word from someone else to lead us to truth.
      1. “But He replied and said to them, ‘An evil and adulterous generation [that is morally unfaithful to God] craves and demands a [miraculous] sign; but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah” (Mat. 12:39).
      2. About 88% of American households own a Bible with the average number per household being approximately 3 to 4 Bibles” (Barna).
   2. The overarching issue is a lack of discipleship in the American church.
      1. Most Believers who attend church hear the pastor’s words, not God’s Word.
         1. “The truth about the truth about the truth about the Truth.”
7. As with much of what Yeshua taught, the concept of “living water” comes straight from the book of Isaiah.
   1.  “Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Yeshua stood and cried out, saying, ‘If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, “From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” But this He said in reference to the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Yeshua was not yet glorified” (John 7:37-39).
      1. The context is Shemini Atzeret, the Eighth-Day celebration of Sukkot (Lev. 23:34,36,39) where the priests would draw waters from the pool of Siloam (see notes from Week 154 on 10/26/24).
      2. The liturgy of the priests for the drawing of the water was taken from Isaiah.
         1. “In that day you will say: ‘I will praise you, LORD. Although you were angry with me, your anger has turned away and you have comforted me. Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD himself, is my strength and my defense ; he has become my salvation. With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation (Heb. יְשׁוּעָה yeshuah)” (Isa. 12:3).
   2. This pronouncement on the 8th Day of Sukkot was the public pronouncement of what Yeshua shared at Jacob’s well with the Samaritan woman.
8. Technically speaking, a well was not a source of water but rather an access point to the source.
   1. The term “living water” referred to a spring or fountain.
      1. “Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and found there a well of flowing (#4325) water (#2416)” (Gen. 26:19).
         1. H4325. mayyim – “water”. 
         2. H2416. Hayyim – “living”.
   2. The other related term in scripture is a fountain (Heb., “maqor”; Strongs #4726).
   3. Because, in a biblical context, water is life, the fountain is also used as a metaphor for life.
      1. “The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, to turn aside from the snares of death” (Prov. 13:14)
      2. “The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, that one may avoid the snares of death” (Prov. 14:27)
      3. “Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it, but the discipline of fools is folly” (Prov. 16:22).
9. The Father revealed in His Word how we can know and access the well of salvation and fountain of life.
   1. “Then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse, And a branch from his roots will bear fruit. The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD” (Isa. 11:1-2).

KEY POINT:

Yeshua Himself is the fountain of life who provides us with a never-ending source of living water for our dry and weary souls.

1. Like the Samaritan woman, we must all draw water from a well to survive.
   1. Our thirst represents our need – i.e. that which is essential for life – and to have needs is to be human.
   2. Acknowledging our physical, emotional and spiritual needs is not weak, selfish or sinful, but human. 
2. However, God intends for our lives to be about more that living to satisfy Self.
   1. The call of God to His covenant people is to trust that He is the source of all that we need. 
      1. “Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’ For the nations eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things” (Mat. 6:31-32).
   2. Deep down, every human being knows their need exceeds their own ability to satisfy it.
      1. However, only Believers have the ability to be set free from slavery to Self.
3. Both physically and spiritually, thirst is a signal that we need something God wants to freely give us.
4. The question is whether or not we will acknowledge the truth and walk in faith or trust in our strength and lean on the arm of the flesh.
   1. “Ho! Every one who thirsts, come to the waters; and you who have no money come, buy and eat. Come, buy wine and milk Without money and without cost. Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And delight yourself in abundance. Incline your ear and come to Me. Listen, that you may live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, according to the faithful mercies shown to David” (Isa. 55:1-3).
      1. “The Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come.’ And let the one who hears say, ‘Come.’ And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wishes take the water of life without cost” (Rev. 22:17).

KEY POINT:

Yeshua not only fulfilled the promised well of salvation, but His death on the execution stake also assures that every need is already fulfilled through our covenant with the Father.

1. So, how do we walk as children of the light and not as Gentiles that continue to seek after temporal things?
2. It starts with knowing God’s Word and believing it is the truth.
   1. “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me” (John 14:6).
      1. Is Yeshua your fountain of life?
   2. “And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Messiah Yeshua” (Phi. 4:19).
      1. Do you trust Yeshua can satisfy every need you have?
   3. “But by [God’s] doing you are in Messiah Yeshua, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption, so that, just as it is written, “LET HIM WHO BOASTS, BOAST IN THE LORD” (1 Cor. 1:30-31).
      1. Are you boasting (i.e. trusting/relying) on Yeshua alone for wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption?
3. Every time we experience fear, lack, loneliness, we should acknowledge our thirst and remind ourselves of God’s promises of provision.
