Jesus says, “The hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.” Jesus did not say that either Samaritans or Jews were exclusively right in their preference for one local shrine or place of sacrificial worship. Still, He declared the sublime truth that the worship of the Father would soon prove itself to be independent of both alike and of all the limitations of place and ceremony. Every place would be as sacred and as hallowed as these notable shrines when the full character and real nature of the object of worship became fully known.
