And many of the Samaritans—believed— Many of the Samaritans had been so struck with the account which the woman gave of Jesus, that they believed him to be the Messiah on her testimony. Accordingly, being come to him, they begged him to take up his residence in their city. Jesus, in compassion to their wants and desires, complied so far as to stay with them two days; which was a proper mediumbetween his entirely neglecting them, and the giving them so much of his time and company as would have broken in upon the design of his journey into Galilee. During the time of his stay, the discourses which our Lord delivered were attended with great power, as appeared by their success: for they brought many of the Sycharites to believe on him as the Messiah.
