Biblical History of Samaria - II King 17 (reference Jesus's works p.89)Assyrians defeated northen kingdom the 10 tribes and only Judea tribe is left. The jews and samaritan married.Samaritan has their own Torah. They only held to the first 5 books. Anything after Deuteronomy, Samaritans discount.Jews vs Samaritans. Israel and Palestine 1700s conflict. Later, Israel divided into two kingdoms. The northern kingdom, called Israel, established its capital first at Shechem, a revered site in Jewish history, and later at the hilltop city of Samaria.In 722 B.C. Assyria conquered Israel and took most of its people into captivity. The invaders then brought in Gentile colonists “from Babylon, Cuthah, Ava, Hamath, and from Sepharvaim” (2 Kin. 17:24) to resettle the land. The foreigners brought with them their pagan idols, which the remaining Jews began to worship alongside the God of Israel (2 Kin. 17:29-41). Intermarriages also took place (Ezra 9:1-10:44; Neh. 13:23-28).Meanwhile, the southern kingdom of Judah fell to Babylon in 600 B.C. Its people, too, were carried off into captivity. But 70 years later, a remnant of 43,000 was permitted to return and rebuild Jerusalem. The people who now inhabited the former northern kingdom—the Samaritans—vigorously opposed the repatriation and tried to undermine the attempt to reestablish the nation. For their part, the full-blooded, monotheistic Jews detested the mixed marriages and worship of their northern cousins. So walls of bitterness were erected on both sides and did nothing but harden for the next 550 years.Joseph's land = Ephraim = Samaria Tribe of Ephraim later named Samaria http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribe_of_Ephraim#Tribal_territorySeckim

3他就離了猶太，又往加利利去。4必須經過撒瑪利亞，5於是到了撒瑪利亞的一座城，名叫敘加，靠近雅各給他兒子約瑟的那塊地。6在那裡有雅各井；耶穌因走路困乏，就坐在井旁。那時約有午正。Jacob’s Well Dig a well猶太人，撒瑪利亞人，基督教和穆斯林 traditions all associate the well with Jacob.18雅各從巴旦亞蘭回來的時候，平平安安地到了迦南地的示劍城，在城東支搭帳棚，19就用一百塊銀子向示劍的父親、哈抹的子孫買了支帳棚的那塊地

Jesus drank from Samaritan's well. Jesus break all culture. Do you share common ground with your gospel prospects?
Sow and reap. Hire two groups of people. Both celebrate harvest. In spirituality, sow and reap are done at the same time. There is no division of season. Like the old ancient organ (one play the other bump to create compression)35你們豈不說『到收割的時候還有四個月』嗎？我告訴你們，舉目向田觀看，莊稼已經熟了（原文是發白），可以收割了。36收割的人得工價，積蓄五穀到永生，叫撒種的和收割的一同快樂。37俗語說：：『那人撒種，這人收割』，這話可見是真的。38我差你們去收你們所沒有勞苦的；別人勞苦，你們享受他們所勞苦的。」39那城裡有好些撒瑪利亞人信了耶穌，因為那婦人作見證說：「他將我素來所行的一切事都給我說出來了。」40於是撒瑪利亞人來見耶穌，求他在他們那裡住下，他便在那裡住了兩天。41因耶穌的話，信的人就更多了，42便對婦人說：「現在我們信，不是因為你的話，是我們親自聽見了，知道這真是救世主。」
難道有人拿東西來給他吃了嗎？Live for the eternal even while you need to suffer by the physical. If you don't live for the eternal, the physical become meaningless.Is Jesus's passion your passion?31這其間，門徒對耶穌說：「拉比，請吃。」32耶穌說：「我有食物吃，是你們不知道的。」33門徒就彼此對問說：「莫非有人拿甚麼給他吃嗎？」34耶穌說：「我的食物就是遵行差我來者的旨意，做成他的工。
