Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

(1 Christ talketh with a woman of Samaria, and reueileth himself unto her. 27 His disciples marueile. 31 He declareth to them his zeal to Gods glory. 39 Many Samaritanes believe on him. 43 He departeth into Galilee, and healeth the Rulers son that lay sick at Capernaum.)
1. Jesus leaves Judea for Galilee (4:1–6)2. Jesus meets a Samaritan woman (4:7–14)3. Jesus teaches the Samaritan woman about worship (4:15–26)4. Jesus teaches his disciples about evangelism (4:27–38)5. Jesus’ ministry in Samaria (4:39–42)6. Jesus goes to Galilee (4:43–45)7. Jesus’ second sign: he heals an official’s son (4:46–54)John 4:7–38 forms one story centered on the teaching of Jesus as the “living water” who gives eternal life to all who believe in him. (See: believe)
Jews avoided traveling through the region of Samaria, because Jews and Samaritans were longtime enemies who hated each other. So Jesus did what most Jews did not want to do. (See: samaria)
Jesus used these words to begin prophecies about events that could be shorter or longer than sixty minutes. In such instances, “hour” refers to a point in time when something happens, not a set length of time. For example, “an hour … when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth” refers to the point in time when people begin to do so (4:23).
Long before Jesus came to earth, the Samaritan people had broken the law of Moses by setting up their own temple on Mount Gerizim (4:20). Jesus explained to the Samaritan woman that in the near future it would no longer be important where people worshiped (4:21–24).
Harvest refers to the time when people go out to get the food they have planted so they can bring it to their houses and eat it. Jesus used this as a metaphor to teach his followers that they need to go and tell other people about Jesus so those people can be part of God’s kingdom. (See: faith)
John probably told this story to show the difference between the Samaritan woman, who believed, and the Jews, who did not believe and would later kill Jesus. (See: believe)
The people who truly know who God is and enjoy worshiping him for who the Bible says he is are the ones who truly please him. The place where they worship him is not important.
