yee knowe not We worshippe that which we knowe For saluation is of the Iewes but the houre commeth and nowe is when the true worshippers shall worship the father in spirite and trueth for the father requireth euen suche to worship him God is a spirite and they that worship him must worship him in spirite and trueth I knowe well quoth the woman that Messias shall come whiche is called Christe when hee is come hee will tell vs all thinges I am euen hee sayde Iesus that speake vnto thee And with that came his disciples who marueiled to see him talking thus with a woman yet none of them durst say vnto him what askest thou or why talkest thou with her The woman then left her water potte and went her way into the Citie and sayde vnto the men of Samaria Come see a man that hath told mee all thinges that euer I did is not hee the Christ Nowe many of the Samaritans of the Citie beleued in Christ for the saying of the woman which testified saying hee hath tolde mee all thinges that euer I did And so went out of the Citie with her vnto Christ and besought him that he woulde tarrye with them And at their request hee abode there in Samaria two daies and many mo Samaritans beleeued in Christ because of his owne woordes and saide vnto the woman Nowe we beleeue in Christ not so much because of thy saying and report or testimonie that thou gauest of him but because wee haue heard him our selues and knowe that this is in deed the Christ the Sauiour of the world Iohn 4. Samaritesse Importunate widowe As Iesus passed through the middes of Samarie to the ende that wee ought alwayes instantly to pray and not waxe faint or colde or to giue place in afflictions and daungers hee put foorth this parable of a importunate widowe vnto his disciples saying There was a iudge in a certayne Citie whiche feared not God nor reuerenced man And there was a widowe also in that same Citie which came vnto him saying Doe me iustice against mine aduersarie who pleadeth against mee And the iudge woulde not for a time but delayed her from day to day yet afterward he saide within himselfe Though I feare not God nor reuerence men yet because this widowe troubleth mee I will doe her right least at the last shee come and make mee wearie with her importunacie Heare nowe what the vnrighteous iudge sayth vnto the widowe And shall not God auenge his elect which cry day and night vnto him Yea though he suffer long for them and seeme flowe in reuenging their wronges I tell you hee will auenge them quickly but when the soone of man commeth shall he finde faith on the earth Luk. 18●1 c. Samsons wife Samsons wife was daughter of a Philistine dwelling in Timnah a Citie in the tribe of Iuda And when at her marriage feaste day her husbande had propounded this ridell Out of the Eater came meate and out of the strong came sweetenesse and promised her friends then sitting at the table that if they coulde reade and interprete this his ridell within seuen dayes of the feast hee woulde giue them 30. sundry suites of apparell to weare at solempe feastes dayes But if they coulde not declare nor finde it out that then they shoulde giue him 30. suites or changes of rayment as costly Because her friendes coulde not within the first three dayes expounde this ridell on the fourth day they came and threatned her saying Entise thine husbande that hee may declare vs the ridell least wee burne thee and thy fathers house with fire haue yee called vs to your feast to impouerishe vs is it so in deede With that Samsons wife being afraide went vnto her husbande and wepte before him saying Surely husband thou hatest mee and louest me not For thou hast put forth a ridell vnto them which are my countreymen and hast not tolde it mee Beholde quoth Sampson I haue not tolde it my father nor my mother and shall I tell it thee Then his wife from the fourth day vntill the seuenth wept still vnto her husbande while the feast lasted to knowe the ridell And when the seuenth day came he vp and tolde her the meaning of his ridell because shee was so importunate vpon him And when shee had learned it shee went straite wayes and tolde it to her friendes and countreymen So when the seuenth day of the feast came or euer the same was set they came to Sāson and declared vnto him his ridell saying what is sweeter then honie And what is stronger then a Lion O well quoth Samson if yee had not plowed with my heyfer that is vsed the helpe of my wife yee had not founde out my redell And so being very angry with his wife that she had heereby caused him to loose the wager hee was by her folly mooued first to take vengeance on the Philistines and presently went and slue 30. of them in one of the fiue chiefest Cities called Ashkelon and of the spoyle of them gaue change of garmentes to them that had expounded his ridell So when he had thus robbed Peter to pay Paul he forsooke his wife her friends went backe to his father Manoahs house in Zorah And in the meane time his wife was giuen to his companion whom he had vsed as his friend but within a while after Samson came backe againe to Timnah thinking to haue visited his wife lien with her and when he sawe that her father had giuen her to another and would not suffer him to go in to her saying I thought that thou hadst hated her therefore gaue I her to thy companion Is not her yonger sister fayrer then shee take her I pray thee in steade of the other Samson then by his wiues father being thus moued againe the second time to take vengeance on y e Philistines said Now am I more blamelesse then the Philistines therefore will I do them displeasure and bee auenged on them And with that he went and got 300. wilde Foxes turned them tayle to tayle and put a fyre brande in the mids betweene the two tayles and when he had set the firebrandes a fyre hee sent the Foxes into the standing corne of the Philistines and so burnt vp both the rikes of corne and hay that were reaped and gathered and also the standing corne in the fieldes with all the vineyardes and Oliues Which fact so grieued the Philistines when they vnderstoode who did it and wherefore that for feare of daunger that els might come vnto them and not for loue of Iustice like wicked men in like malice and spite they came vp to Timnah to his father in lawes house and there burnt his wife that had forsaken him and her father and all that they had with fire likewise Therfore in reuenge of which vilanie done this vnto his wife Samson yet againe the thirde time went to be auenged on the Philistines and slue them
