1 And so, when Jesus realized that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made more disciples and baptized more than John,
2 (though Jesus himself was not baptizing, but only his disciples)
3 he left behind Judea, and he traveled again to Galilee.
4 Now he needed to cross through Samaria.
5 Therefore, he went into a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the estate which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
