00:28:59.859 --> 00:29:03.220
Now<00:29:00.180><c> Neapolis</c><00:29:00.759><c> is</c><00:29:01.059><c> of</c><00:29:01.279><c> course</c><00:29:01.559><c> a</c><00:29:01.920><c> Greek</c><00:29:02.259><c> name.</c>

00:29:03.259 --> 00:29:07.259

00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:13.980
Because<00:29:09.180><c> the</c><00:29:10.240><c> Arabic</c><00:29:10.799><c> name</c><00:29:11.200><c> for</c><00:29:11.400><c> this</c><00:29:11.619><c> particular</c><00:29:12.099><c> city</c><00:29:12.440><c> is</c><00:29:13.220><c> Nablus.</c>

00:29:13.980 --> 00:29:19.480
The<00:29:15.440><c> Arabs</c><00:29:15.779><c> call</c><00:29:16.099><c> it</c><00:29:16.380><c> Nablus</c><00:29:17.039><c> and</c><00:29:17.440><c> it's</c><00:29:17.640><c> from</c><00:29:17.920><c> the</c><00:29:18.180><c> Greek</c><00:29:18.500><c> Neapolis.</c>

00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:22.640
But<00:29:20.740><c> that's</c><00:29:20.940><c> not</c><00:29:21.140><c> the</c><00:29:21.299><c> Hebrew</c><00:29:21.539><c> name.</c>

00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:25.799
What's<00:29:23.339><c> the</c><00:29:23.500><c> Hebrew</c><00:29:23.880><c> name</c><00:29:24.420><c> for</c><00:29:25.079><c> Neapolis?</c>

00:29:26.019 --> 00:29:32.220
And<00:29:26.059><c> the</c><00:29:26.160><c> answer</c><00:29:26.539><c> is</c><00:29:27.140><c> this</c><00:29:27.859><c> is</c><00:29:28.220><c> the</c><00:29:28.500><c> Old</c><00:29:28.900><c> Testament</c><00:29:29.539><c> city</c><00:29:30.359><c> of</c><00:29:31.200><c> Shechem.</c>

00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:37.960
Now<00:29:33.799><c> what's</c><00:29:34.319><c> interesting</c><00:29:34.640><c> about</c><00:29:35.059><c> that</c><00:29:35.799><c> is</c><00:29:36.519><c> you</c><00:29:36.799><c> see</c><00:29:37.079><c> Christ</c>

00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:45.259
And<00:29:42.339><c> I</c><00:29:42.619><c> think</c><00:29:42.859><c> that</c><00:29:43.160><c> Christ</c><00:29:43.440><c> had</c><00:29:43.700><c> already</c><00:29:44.279><c> prepared</c><00:29:44.859><c> the</c>

00:29:45.259 --> 00:29:47.619

00:29:47.740 --> 00:29:49.380
Because<00:29:47.960><c> he's</c><00:29:48.220><c> already</c><00:29:48.579><c> been</c><00:29:48.819><c> to</c><00:29:49.000><c> this</c><00:29:49.220><c> place.</c>

00:29:49.500 --> 00:29:53.200
Now<00:29:49.660><c> where</c><00:29:49.819><c> did</c><00:29:50.980><c> Christ</c><00:29:51.420><c> go</c><00:29:51.740><c> to</c><00:29:52.000><c> the</c><00:29:52.000><c> city</c><00:29:52.599><c> of</c><00:29:53.019><c> Shechem?</c>

00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:55.960
Where's<00:29:53.700><c> the</c><00:29:53.880><c> story</c><00:29:54.140><c> of</c><00:29:54.359><c> Christ's</c><00:29:55.380><c> visit</c><00:29:55.380><c> to</c><00:29:55.480><c> Shechem?</c>

00:29:56.259 --> 00:30:00.700
Well<00:29:56.440><c> of</c><00:29:56.539><c> course</c><00:29:56.700><c> it's</c><00:29:57.119><c> John</c><00:29:57.559><c> chapter</c><00:29:57.980><c> 4</c><00:29:58.599><c> and</c><00:29:59.180><c> the</c><00:29:59.460><c> woman</c><00:29:59.759><c> of</c><00:30:00.160><c> Samaria.</c>

00:30:01.079 --> 00:30:03.039
Now<00:30:01.200><c> come</c><00:30:01.359><c> and</c><00:30:01.460><c> have</c><00:30:01.579><c> a</c><00:30:01.660><c> look</c><00:30:01.759><c> at</c><00:30:01.880><c> this</c><00:30:02.059><c> because</c><00:30:02.440><c> we're</c><00:30:02.700><c> not</c><00:30:02.839><c> going</c><00:30:02.980><c> to</c>

00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:06.400
But<00:30:04.079><c> let</c><00:30:04.240><c> me</c><00:30:04.359><c> just</c><00:30:04.559><c> show</c><00:30:04.660><c> you</c><00:30:04.779><c> two</c><00:30:04.940><c> or</c><00:30:05.140><c> three</c><00:30:05.319><c> crucial</c><00:30:06.019><c> little</c>

00:30:06.400 --> 00:30:08.720
passages<00:30:06.839><c> that</c><00:30:07.640><c> suggest</c><00:30:08.079><c> a</c><00:30:08.380><c> connection</c>

00:30:08.720 --> 00:30:12.799
with<00:30:09.079><c> Acts</c><00:30:09.599><c> chapter</c><00:30:09.920><c> 8</c><00:30:10.259><c> and</c><00:30:10.660><c> the</c><00:30:10.839><c> work</c><00:30:11.039><c> of</c><00:30:11.319><c> Philip</c><00:30:11.420><c> when</c><00:30:11.579><c> he</c><00:30:11.900><c> went</c><00:30:12.160><c> down</c><00:30:12.460><c> to</c>

a<00:30:13.380><c> city</c><00:30:14.039><c> of</c><00:30:15.079><c> Samaria.</c>

00:30:16.559 --> 00:30:20.859
Now<00:30:16.740><c> in</c><00:30:17.000><c> John</c><00:30:17.339><c> and</c><00:30:17.619><c> chapter</c><00:30:17.920><c> 4</c><00:30:18.299><c> we</c><00:30:18.980><c> read</c><00:30:19.400><c> these</c><00:30:19.720><c> words.</c>

00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:26.559
So<00:30:21.519><c> John</c><00:30:21.759><c> 4,</c><00:30:22.579><c> firstly</c><00:30:22.900><c> verses</c><00:30:23.319><c> 4</c><00:30:23.799><c> and</c><00:30:23.980><c> 5</c><00:30:24.799><c> says</c><00:30:25.839><c> of</c><00:30:26.039><c> the</c><00:30:26.140><c> Lord</c><00:30:26.319><c> that</c><00:30:26.480><c> he</c>

00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:28.900
must<00:30:26.920><c> needs</c><00:30:27.339><c> go</c><00:30:27.700><c> through</c><00:30:28.200><c> Samaria.</c>

00:30:28.900 --> 00:30:35.359
Then<00:30:30.160><c> come</c><00:30:30.420><c> a</c><00:30:30.539><c> fee</c><00:30:30.660><c> to</c><00:30:30.819><c> a</c><00:30:31.000><c> city</c><00:30:31.339><c> of</c><00:30:31.640><c> Samaria,</c><00:30:31.920><c> to</c><00:30:32.339><c> a</c><00:30:32.880><c> city</c><00:30:33.380><c> of</c><00:30:33.740><c> Samaria</c><00:30:34.599><c> which</c><00:30:34.980><c> is</c>

00:30:35.359 --> 00:30:36.880
called<00:30:35.799><c> Sychar</c>

00:30:36.880 --> 00:30:41.319
near<00:30:37.839><c> to</c><00:30:38.099><c> the</c><00:30:38.359><c> parcel</c><00:30:38.660><c> of</c><00:30:39.059><c> ground</c><00:30:39.380><c> that</c><00:30:39.920><c> Jacob</c><00:30:40.339><c> gave</c><00:30:40.779><c> to</c><00:30:41.039><c> his</c>

00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:43.000
son<00:30:41.779><c> Joseph.</c>

00:30:43.380 --> 00:30:48.799
Now<00:30:43.640><c> there</c><00:30:43.779><c> are</c><00:30:44.079><c> some</c><00:30:44.339><c> who</c><00:30:44.579><c> believe</c><00:30:44.839><c> that</c><00:30:45.079><c> the</c><00:30:45.400><c> Sychar</c><00:30:45.960><c> of</c><00:30:46.319><c> John</c><00:30:46.640><c> 4</c><00:30:47.119><c> verse</c><00:30:47.480><c> 5</c>

00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:52.420
is<00:30:49.279><c> not</c><00:30:49.700><c> quite</c><00:30:50.000><c> the</c><00:30:50.619><c> same</c><00:30:51.460><c> as</c><00:30:51.619><c> the</c><00:30:51.680><c> city</c><00:30:51.960><c> of</c><00:30:52.279><c> Shechem</c>

00:30:52.420 --> 00:30:55.339
that<00:30:52.579><c> it's</c><00:30:52.819><c> in</c><00:30:52.940><c> fact</c><00:30:53.039><c> a</c><00:30:53.240><c> little</c><00:30:53.440><c> village</c><00:30:53.940><c> alongside</c><00:30:54.759><c> Shechem.</c>

00:30:55.339 --> 00:30:58.619
But<00:30:55.819><c> it</c><00:30:56.039><c> doesn't</c><00:30:56.339><c> really</c><00:30:56.680><c> matter</c><00:30:56.980><c> because</c><00:30:57.680><c> ultimately</c><00:30:58.279><c> the</c>

00:30:58.619 --> 00:31:01.519

We<00:31:17.619><c> know</c><00:31:17.779><c> what</c><00:31:17.960><c> we</c><00:31:18.200><c> worship</c><00:31:18.500><c> for</c><00:31:18.740><c> salvation</c><00:31:19.279><c> is</c><00:31:19.480><c> of</c><00:31:19.619><c> the</c><00:31:19.940><c> Jews.</c>

00:31:20.400 --> 00:31:24.539
The<00:31:21.500><c> hour</c><00:31:21.859><c> cometh</c><00:31:22.160><c> and</c><00:31:22.400><c> now</c><00:31:22.619><c> is</c><00:31:23.000><c> when</c><00:31:23.220><c> the</c><00:31:23.579><c> true</c><00:31:23.880><c> worshipers</c>
