JOHN 4:25-27 NKJV

The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, He will tell us all things.”
Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am He.”
And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why are You talking with her?”
JOHN 4:25-27 NKJV

John 4:25 The Samaritans believed that the prophet of Deut. 18:15 would teach all things when he came.
John 4:26 I … am He: Using the same words that God used when He revealed Himself to Moses (Ex. 3:14), Jesus clearly stated that He is the Messiah.
John 4:27 The disciples marveled that their rabbi was speaking to a woman (John 4:27). In their day it was considered disreputable and beneath his dignity for a rabbi to speak to a woman in public. But Jesus chose a more inclusive posture than His religious peers.
