Woman at the Well (Part 1)

The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In "Woman at the Well (Part 1)" by Steve Gregg, Gregg analyzes the story of the Samaritan woman in John chapter 4. He notes that Samaritans were not considered pure by Jews, and many Jewish people avoided traveling through Samaria. Despite this, Jesus chose to make contact with a Samaritan village and spoke with the woman at the well, who was likely shunned by her community due to her scandalous reputation. Gregg emphasizes that while the woman's history may not reflect positively on her character, the Bible does not give a solely negative portrayal of her.
