John 4:16 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. Call thy husband - Our Lord appears to have spoken these words for two purposes:

1. To make the woman consider her own state.

2. To show her that he knew her heart, and the secret actions of her life; and was therefore well qualified to teach her heavenly truths.

John 4:16
