Dylan's Lectionary Blog, Lent 3, 2005. Biblical Scholar Sarah Dylan Breuer

Church.

"What transformed this woman could transform our world. The woman at the
well was despised by her village, which was despised by Judeans, whose
ancestors had been humilated by Babylonians. From generation to generation,
humilation, resentment, and violence were passed down by people keeping the
score so that they could seek to even it. Jesus sets aside all
score-keeping, and by treating all as if all were forgiven, he makes
forgiveness possible -- even for self-righteous sinners like us."

"First Thoughts on Year A Gospel Passages in the Lectionary: Lent 3,"
William Loader, Murdoch University, Uniting Church in Australia.
http://wwwstaff.murdoch.edu.au/~loader/MtLent3.htm
"This wonderful piece of drama has many levels of meaning. As always in
John its central character is God and God’s gift of life through the
invitation to live in the holy space of love, the true worship in the
Spirit, which is also the living space of the Father and the Son. That love,
embodied, cuts across racial and cultural prejudice, affirms women, engages
and loves sinners."

Lectionary Commentary and Preaching Paths (Lent A3), by Jirair Tashjian, at
The Christian Resource Institute.
http://www.cresourcei.org/lectionary/YearA/Alent3nt.html
"Has the church really done all that it could to take on the issue of racial
prejudice? What about prejudice based on gender and economic status? How
ready is the church to minister to people whose morality does not measure up
to the church’s standards?"

"The Witness at the Well," commentary by Fred B. Craddock from The
Christian Century, 1990. At Religion Online.
http://www.religion-online.org/showarticle.asp?title=711
"She is open and honest, a truth-seeker hindered only by a hypocritical
town that forces her to come alone to the well at noon rather than the
customary evening hour. Moralizers, however, have painted her as dangerous:
beware her seductive ways, her mincing walk, her eyes waiting in ambush."

Exegetical Notes by Brian Stoffregen at CrossMarks Christian Resources.
http://www.crossmarks.com/brian/john4x5.htm
"Our language about what God offers: justification, sanctification,
forgiveness, grace, etc., may be just as confusing to the world as "living
water" was to this woman (or "born from above" was to Nicodemus). What will
"speak" to this woman? What will speak to the unbelieving world? How do we
help the world know what to ask for?"

the conversation about?"

"Unlikely Messenger," Patricia Farris, The Christian Century, 2002.
Religion Online.
http://www.religion-online.org/showarticle.asp?title=2261
"Not only is she a woman, but a divorced woman with a shady past and a
Samaritan. By custom, Rabbi Jesus ought not even speak with her in public,
let alone drink from her Samaritan bucket. But what transpires between these
two is nothing short of miraculous. These strangers, these enemies, discover
at the well that they need each other."

"Strangers in the Night," Richard Lischer. Commentary from The Christian
Century, February, 1999. At Religion Online.
http://www.religion-online.org/showarticle.asp?title=607
"The story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman turns out to be a love story
after all, for only one who loved you knows you as you are and not as you
pretend to be. Only one who loves you knows your deepest desires. Only one
who loves you can look at your past without blinking."

"A Divine Engagement," Scott F. Hunter, in Kerux: The Online Journal of
Biblical Theology (Reformed).
http://www.kerux.com/documents/KeruxV9N1A2.asp
"It was earlier noted that Jesus had to pass through Samaria because of a
divine engagement. But this engagement was more than just an appointment for
Christ; it was a wedding engagement for the woman. It was an engagement of
the most profound and holy matrimony, that between Christ and his Church."

Biblical Theology Bulletin, 2005.
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0LAL/is_3_35/ai_n15674958
"A contextual approach shaped by modern missiology, cultural anthropology,
and local/contextual theology highlights the text's sensitivity to ethnic
identity, cultural and religious traditions, past history, prejudice,
marginalization, differences in perspective, and human processes in faith
development. Read in this light, the passage can provide a model for
ministry across cultural barriers in a pluralistic world still crisscrossed
by divisions."

(1994):77-91.
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0LAL/is_3_35/ai_n15674958
"In John 4, all social taboos customarily separating males and females into
separate worlds are systematically recognized, but broken and transformed.
This upsetting of cultural taboos, moreover, is conscious and intentional;
it constitutes an essential part of the communication of the author."

"Perhaps it is this other side, the underside of the liberation shekel,

William Loader, Murdoch University, Uniting Church in Australia.
http://wwwstaff.murdoch.edu.au/~loader/AEpLent3.htm
"Reconciliation does not mean Jesus paid God off so that God's honour was
intact, reconciling God to us - as though God needed the therapy or needed
to be satisfied (as though what sates God is not love but self-love). Rather
God was doing the reconciling."

"God's Love Poured in our Hearts," Rev. Bryan Findlayson, Lectionary Bible

http://www.religion-online.org/showarticle.asp?title=720
"As we acknowledge the inevitable failure of any attempt to nail down God’s
thinking, we must recognize that there is more to the matter of our
widespread agnosticism regarding the atonement than theological modesty
before the mystery of the divine."

"Salvation Is for Life," Richard J. Foster, Theology Today, 2004.

"Jesus and the early Apostles preached a salvation radically different from
the kind of salvation being preached today. They spoke of a life in the
kingdom of God encompassing all of human existence, both here and hereafter.
The circumference of their message embraces 360 degrees."

"Suffering Produces Hope," Walter Brueggemann, Institute for Christian and
Jewish Studies Electronic Library.
http://www.icjs.org/clergy/walter.html
"This statement [Rom 5:3-5] is expressed in Christian cadences, but it
strikes me as close to the core of what makes us distinctive together with
Jews: suffering . . . endurance . . .character . . . hope . . . and hope
does not disappoint us. This is the speech of a community that refuses to
give in. It is the speech of a community that refuses the present loss as
the last truth; a community that knows that God is not finished. God is not
finished, and so Christians, in the tensive claim of the Eucharist."

"Romans 5-8 as Pastoral Theology," Stanley N. Olson, Word & World, 1986.

"Although very different in literary form and intent, the works of both
Girard and Paton illuminate the deepest human longings and needs. The
doctrine of the atonement seeks to address these longings and needs by
articulating for each new age the confession that in Christ, God is
reconciling the world to God's self."
