I think it’s always a matter akin to what God did in the Garden of Eden when he called out asking Adam where he was. It wasn’t that he didn’t know, but he called out for the sake of Adam

Another example is when the woman touched Jesus's garment to be healed of her illness, and in turn, Jesus asked who touched Him.

He knew people would scoff at such a question because He was in the midst of a crowd.

But Jesus also knew who touched Him.

He wanted her to speak up and witness in front of everyone about her faith in Him and how it healed her.

Yep. I really think this is the lesson from this text. That we are to pursue Jesus desperately and with faith. The woman at the well is amother example. She may have not been pursuing Jesus but her social situation was desperate.

Just another feminist priest trying to say wymmyn are smarter than men.
