>How will you understand the parable if you don't even know the passage and add/take away from it?
That was an interesting exchange. Fortunately I keep my Gospels from Aramaic nearby and reread John 4:6-30.
It doesn't say that her latest husband was someone else's, though. It reads more like serial monogamy to me.
PB, anon. It's the polite thing to do.
>Notice how the article fails to mention who was called buckwheat or what race that person is.
It says it was unclear to whom he was referring, but it's clear he was referring to the person who "chimed in".
Too bad we don't have actual journalists anymore to track this down.

It's sitting here right next to me, anon.

From the introduction;
The providence of God, however, wrought an extra-
ordinary miracle. Other Christian literature suffered, but
the Gospels of Jesus stood unchallenged. Even though
the Koran became the revered book of the Moslems,
Mohammed (570-632 A.D.) accepted the Gospels as the
veritable word of God, as also did his successors, and
all Moslems throughout the world. However, the version
of the Gospels, honored b y Mohammedans, is not the
Vulgate of the Western world, which they repudiate as
second-hand and as an unreliable translation. But it was
the Eastern version of the Gospels, the Peshitta, which
means clear, straight and popularly accepted. This name
is justified by its clarity of style, directness of expres-
sion and simplicity of language. This was the version
which the people of this region knew and used before
they became Mohammedans. This is, moreover, the
authentic and official version of what once constituted
the original Eastern Church, the Mother Church of
Christendom.
Years later when other peoples accepted Christianity,
translations of the Peshitta were made into Greek, Ar-
menian, Arabic, Persian, and other languages
