"It is interesting to trace our Lord’s movements that brought Him to Samaria. He was in Jerusalem (John 2:23) and then came into Judea (John 3:22). From Judea He went into Samaria (John 4:4), and the Samaritans declared Him to be ’the Savior of the world.’ This is a perfect parallel to Acts 1:8 -’And ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.’ Our Lord has set the example. If we follow, He will give us the harvest." [Note: Wiersbe, 1:302.]
