Weekly £ unday School Lesson
Jesus the Water of Life
Text: John 4:7-26
By WM. E. GILROY, D. L Editor of Advance HE story of the meeting of ‘esus with a woman of Samar a at Jacob’s well has some’ intereiting aspects that are not indicatei in the lesson itself. Perhaps one of the most str king angles is the way in which the tory emphasizes the unconventionali y of Jesus, and the extent to whick, He disregarded well-established ¢ades and customs of His day that were out of accord with reality. Repeatedly His enemies ¢hallenged Him on this ground, and Jesus had to defend His free and common-sense practice against the formal rules and regulations ‘vith which tradition had curbed the mind and.the spirit. In the East there has been no such freedom of public conversaiion between men and women as has been the practice in the Wes ern world. It was decidedly unu:ual for a man to be found conver ing with a woman at a public plice, such as a well, and one can eg:sily understand the amazement of the disciples when they returned f om the city and found Jesus thus :ngaged. When the woman concerned ‘vas one whose reputation was none {oo savory, whose character, not inlikely, may have been indicated in. her appearance, the amazement 1 'as all the greater.
” ” ” ND yet it is in this story of A the conversation of Jesus with a much-married woman, at that time living in ‘adultery, that cae feels the purity and beauty of Je: us Himself, and the quality of that life which drew forth all that wis best in those with whom He cate in contact, even though that htst was buried beneath sinful charg:ters and environments. The story has some very interes :- ing sidelights. When Jesus begin to question the woman, in a som :- what pressing and embarrassii.g way, concerning her own person | ul life, she immediately switched tie conversation to other things. Ste wanted to know why Jesus, beirz a Jew, should ask for a drink of water from her, a Samaritan wor - an. It was a very pointed questio! |, and indicated that she wanted to turn the conversation away froin the subject of personal sins to tha: of social and religious customs. Peg - ple who have been little concerne: | about the practice of Christian vir tue and the upholding of Christiai truth often have been the mos. ready to discuss theoretical ques: tion of religion and theology. The} have, in fact, been known to be: come rather violent and -intolerant over the discussion of doctrine: which they have done Nile: hed put into practice. i

Sit. Catherine's | ;
HEN the woman interjected the question concerning worship—whether the true place for it was in Jerusalem, or in the Samarian Mountains—Jesus turned her question and the discussion very quickly to higher things. It was to this woman that He gave that deep and beautiful word concerning truth and worship: That God is a spirit, and that they who worship must worship in spirit and in truth; and that neither at Jerusalem, nor in any mountain, but wherever devout souls are found, there the true worship of God may be. With this was the teaching of Jesus concerning the water of life, the deep satisfaction that this woman, with all her quest of earthly happiness, had never found. Can any words apply more truly than these to our life of today? How many in the modern world are like this woman, seeking happiness and satisfaction in unconvenional ways and acts, defying codes and moral standards alike, but finding no real happiness or satisfaction! It is to these that an unconventional! Christ, Himself living above mere formal codes and precepts, reveals the true way of life, the yield-
.ing of the spirit to the spirit of God,
and the uplifting of the soul under the power of love and righteousness.
