Day 125 Bible Readings – John 4: 27-29 (ESV)

Judges 2:6-23, Judges 3, John 4:27-42, Psalm 74:18-23

John 4: 27-29 (ESV)

“Just then his disciples came back. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but no one said, “What do you seek?” or, “Why are you talking with her?” So the woman left her water jar and went away into town and said to the people, “Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?”

I love this scene of the Jesus talking to the Samaritan woman at the well. Verses 27 through 29 shows us her reaction to Jesus when she realizes that he is the Christ, the Messiah. I’ve always wondered how she sounded and what her emotion were when she tells the disciples “Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?” Her reaction to realizing that Jesus is the Christ was to immediately go out and tell everyone. The Chosen series in Season 2 episode does a recreating in a dramatic and creative way the scene between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. There are words from Scripture in the scenes, but the writers of the Chosen series have also added other dialog for context. Seeing the reaction of the Samaritan woman at the well was so endearing. The actress who played the Samaritan women did a great job of showing her reaction to Jesus. It makes me wonder what my reaction would have been had I come across Jesus in person and realized to whom I was speaking.

Enjoy this wonder dramatization of these verses from The Chosen series Season 2 episode 1.
