“worn out from His journey”
The humanity of Jesus

Comparing Nicodemus, who sought Jesus out and this woman, who was confronted by Jesus.
• Both thought they were spiritually secure.
• Both were crudely literal or materialistic in their reaction to Jesus’ spiritual teaching.
• Both were spiritually empty and sensed the need for God.
• Both were spiritually lost, and that was the root of all their other problems (Boice, I, pp.
335–37).

We concede that Jesus is… Something other than God.
But we struggle to break through to full acceptance of Him as Lord and King.

Even though salvation comes through the Jews, not the Samaritans, He points away from a place of worship to a people of worship.
In spirit and truth.
Non-metaphorical I AM statement.
More powerful than I AM the Bread of Life or I AM the Good Shepherd.
“You’re waiting on the Messiah?
I AM the one speaking to you.”
“You’re waiting on the Messiah?
I AM the one speaking to you.”
