Nkhani ya mkazi pachitsime ndi imodzi yodziwika bwino kwambiri m'Baibulo; Akhristu ambiri angathe kufotokozera mwachidule za chidule chake. Pamapeto pake, nkhaniyi imasimba za tsankho komanso mzimayi yemwe anthu amudzi kwawo amawatsutsa. Koma yang'anani mozama ndipo mudzazindikira kuti zikuwonetsa zambiri za umunthu wa Yesu.Pamwamba koposa, nkhaniyi, yomwe ikuvumbulutsidwa mu Yohane 4: 1-40, ikusonyeza kuti Yesu ndi Mulungu wachikondi komanso kuvomereza Mulungu ndipo tiyenera kutsatira chitsanzo chake.
Nkhaniyi iyamba pamene Yesu ndi ophunzira ake adachoka ku Yerusalemu kumwera kupita ku Galileya kumpoto. Kuti achepetse ulendowu, adutsa njira yachangu kwambiri kudzera ku Samariya. Wotopa ndi ludzu, Yesu adakhala pafupi ndi chitsime cha Yakobo pomwe ophunzira ake adapita kumudzi wa Sukari, pafupifupi theka la mamailosi, kukagula chakudya. Kunali masana, gawo lotentha kwambiri, ndipo mayi wachisamariya adabwera pachitsime panthawiyi kudzatunga madzi.
Yesu akumana ndi mkazi pachitsime
Pamsonkha ndi mkazi pachitsime, Yesu adaswa miyambo itatu yachiyuda. Choyamba, adalankhula naye ngakhale anali mkazi. Chachiwiri, anali mayi wachisamariya ndipo Ayuda pachikhalidwe chawo amapereka Asamariya. Ndipo kachitatu, adamupempha kuti amubweretsere madzi, ngakhale kuti kugwiritsa ntchito kapu yake kapena chikho chake kukadamupangitsa kukhala wosadetsedwa.
Khalidwe la Yesu lidadabwitsa mzimayi pachitsime. Koma ngati kuti sizinakwanire, adauza mayiyo kuti amupatse "madzi amoyo" kuti asakhale ndi ludzu. Yesu adagwiritsa ntchito mawu oti madzi amoyo kutanthauza moyo wamuyaya, mphatso yomwe ingakwaniritse chikhumbo cha moyo wake chokha kudzera mwa iye. Poyamba, mkazi wachisamariya sanamvetsetse tanthauzo la Yesu.
Ngakhale anali asanakumanepo, Yesu adaulula kuti amadziwa kuti anali ndi amuna asanu ndipo kuti tsopano amakhala ndi mwamuna yemwe sanali mwamunayo. Adali ndi chidwi chake chonse!

Pomwe Yesu ndi mayiyo amafotokoza malingaliro awo pankhani yachipembedzo, mayiyo adanena kuti amakhulupirira kuti Mesiya akubwera. Yesu adayankha: "Ndiye amene akulankhula nawe." (Yohane 4:26, ESV)

Malingaliro achidwi kuchokera m'mbiri ya mkazi kupita pachitsime
Kuti timvetsetse bwino mbiri ya mzimayi pachitsime, ndikofunikira kumvetsetsa kuti Asamariya anali ndani - anthu osakanikirana omwe adakwatirana ndi Asuri zaka zambiri zisanachitike. Anadedwa ndi Ayuda chifukwa cha kusakanikirana kwachikhalidwe kumeneku komanso chifukwa anali ndi Baibulo lawo komanso kachisi wawo pa phiri la Gerizim.

Yesu amadziwa nkhani yake, koma anaibvomereza ndi kuisamalira.
Polankhula ndi Asamariya, Yesu adawonetsa kuti cholinga chake chinali cha anthu onse, osati Ayuda okha. M'buku la Machitidwe, Yesu atakwera kumwamba, Atumwi ake adapitiliza ntchito yake ku Samariya ndi kwa anthu akunja. Chodabwitsa ndichakuti, pamene Mkulu wa Ansembe ndi Sanhedrini adakana Yesu kukhala Mesiya, Asamariya osiyidwawo adamuzindikira ndikumulandira pazomwe anali, Ambuye ndi Mpulumutsi.
