John 4:6 - First Nations Version Weary from his journey, about the sixth hour of the day, Creator Sets Free (Jesus) sat down to rest at the ancient watering hole of Heel Grabber (Jacob), while the ones who walked the road with him went to the nearby village to find some food. The sun had reached midpoint in the sky. It was now the time of day when no one would normally come to the watering hole. A woman from High Place (Samaria) came to the well to draw water. Creator Sets Free (Jesus) saw the woman and said to her, “Would you give me some water to drink?” This surprised the woman, because a traditional man would not speak to a woman in public.
