John 4:2

Verse 2 of 54. The 4th of 21 chapters in John, in The Gospels.

1Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

2(although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),

3he left Judea and departed into Galilee.

4He needed to pass through Samaria.

5So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
