A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus told her, "Please give me a drink,"

The Samaritan woman asked him, "How can you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" Because Jews do not have anything to do with Samaritans.

The woman told him, "Sir, you don't have a bucket, and the well is deep. Where are you going to get this living water?

The woman told him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I won't get thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water."

The woman answered him, "I don't have a husband."

The woman told him, "Sir, I see that you are a prophet!

The woman told him, "I know that the Anointed One is coming, who is being called "the Messiah'. When that person comes, he will explain everything."

At this point his disciples arrived, and they were astonished that he was talking to a woman. Yet no one said, "What do you want from her?" or, "Why are you talking to her?"

Then the woman left her water jar and went back to town. She told people,

Now many of the Samaritans of that town believed in Jesus because the woman had testified, "He told me everything I've ever done."

They kept telling the woman, "It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, because now we have heard him ourselves, and we know that he really is the Savior of the world."

But the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery. After setting her before them,

they told him, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in the very act of adultery.

Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women to death. What do you say?"

When they heard this, they went away one by one, beginning with the oldest, and he was left alone with the woman standing there.

Mary was the woman who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair. Her brother Lazarus was the one who was ill.

When a woman is in labor she has pain, because her time has come. Yet when she has given birth to her child, she doesn't remember the agony anymore because of the joy of having brought a human being into the world.

The young woman at the gate asked Peter, "You aren't one of this man's disciples, too, are you?" "I am not," he replied.
