| http://www.swedenborgdigitallibrary.org/ootw/ootw23.htm(John 4:19 - 25) The woman of Samaria and Jesus were talking together at Jacob's well near Sychar or Shechem, under the very shadow of Mount Gerizim. When the conversation grew a bit too personal and embarrassing, she deftly changed the subject, bringing up the old bone of contention. "Our fathers worshipped in this mountain," she said, "but you Jews say that Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship." To which Jesus replied: "Woman, believe me, the hour has now come when men shall neither in this mountain nor yet in Jerusalem worship the Father. God is SPIRIT, and they who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth." The woman said, "I know that the Messiah is coming, who is called Christ; when he comes he will tell us all things." Jesus replied: "I who speak to you am he." Here, then, was the end of the feud between the Samaritans and the Jews as to the correct place for worshipping God. | |
