| Résumé : | In the course of attracting and engaging with possible disciples, Jesus came in dialogue in chapter 4 of John's Gospel with one who described herself as "a woman of Samaria" (John 4, 9). This work studies this meeting at Jacob's well (John 4, 6) in Sychar, which is portrayed as providential, and, later, as precedence to the coming of some Greeks to "see Jesus" (John 12). The author suggests that the passage is set by the Evangelist as both starting point and turning point for the mission of the early Christians in Samaria (John 4; Acts 8). He thus recommends that this long text be read as a major step outside of Orthodox Judaism, an opening and proffering of the Good News to the Gentiles, to the nations or the rest of the world (cf. John 4, 42). As he shows, the conversation develops through the basic human thirst: water and love; yet, these are characteristic gifts of the Spirit in the Johannine concept. Water and love are thus life-giving, liberating, refreshing and issuing from a limitless spring-source, as the reader of this book is gradually led to discover. |
