Need we wonder now, at the apparently superfluous entry in the
Gospel narrative, "He HAD to go through Samaria?" What would the
infant Church, yes, the Church in all ages, have missed, had our
Bibles been stripped of this fourth chapter of John? A sweet,
silver tone of the jubilee trumpet would have been lost to the
trembling, the despairing, the perishing. Oh most memorable
incident Oh most honored fountain Well may the 'Israel of God'
stand round the stony margin-as did the Hebrew nobles and princes
of old with their rugged staves, at Beer, on the borders of Moab,
by the brooks of Arnon-and say, in the words of that oldest pilgrim
song, "Spring up, O well: sing to it," for a nobler than Hebrew
"prince" or "noble" has made you oracular-put a tongue into your
depths-and made you speak of "living water springing up into
everlasting life." There is one special practical thought which
this "had to" of the great wayside Traveler suggests: it is, the
peerless value of a single soul in the sight of Christ. It is the
truth of His own exquisite parable exhibited in impressive reality:
the heavenly Shepherd, when, out of the hundred sheep He had missed
one erring wanderer, going amid these mountains of Samaria to seek
'that which was lost.'
