SCRIPTURE COMMENTARY #118

Jesus saith to her: "Go, call thy husband, and come hither." The woman answered and said: "I have no husband." Jesus said to her: "Thou hast said well: I have no husband. For thou hast had five husbands: and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband. This, thou hast said truly." (John 4:16-18)

JESUS IS GOD: By revealing to the Samaritan woman the hidden secrets of her conscience, He manifested His omniscience.

[From 'A Practical Commentary on Holy Scripture' by Bishop Knecht, D.D.]
(1899 Douay-Rheims Bible)
