Commentary on John 4:42
The Samaritans' confession that Jesus is 'the Saviour of the world' (not just of Jews) represents remarkable theological insight. This title appears only here and 1 John 4:14, emphasizing universal salvation scope. Their faith no longer depends on the woman's testimony but on personal knowledge. Reformed theology affirms that saving faith requires personal appropriation, not vicarious experience.
