“The critics are unwilling to acknowledge that Jesus revealed Himself as the Messias at so early a date to the Samaritan woman and her compatriots. And the ideas He sets forth to His different hearers are considered too lofty. But the Synoptics also show us that at an early date Jesus manifests His Messianic character to a few privileged persons; probably He explained to the Samaritan woman, as He did to Nicodemus, the thoughts that were beyond her grasp” The Life of Christ by L.C. Fillion, Vol. II.
