John 4 — Context

And on this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seek you? or, Why talk you with her?

The woman then left her water pot, and went her way into the city, and says to the men,

Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

Then they went out of the city, and came to him. ¶

In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.

But he said to them, I have meat to eat that you know not of.

Therefore says the disciples one to another, Has any man brought him something to eat?
