1. Why didn't Jesus and the Samaritan woman mean the same thing when they used the word "water?" Much more so than food, human beings are dependent on water and live only a matter of days without it. What was Jesus up to when he used water and "thirst" to speak of eternal life?

2. What would a woman who has had five men be looking for, and why has she not found it through the worship of God in Shechem on Mount Gerizim?3. Samaritans believed in the five books of Moses only, not including the Prophets and the Writings as Jews did. So for this woman, the Ten Commandments would have been paramount, yet most of her adult life she has perpetually broken the seventh commandment. What was Jesus' response to her ethical character?
