Eric John Wyckoff untersucht in diesem Band vier biblische Texte, die von Begegnungen zwischen einer Frau und einem Mann an einem Brunnen erzählen. Die Episoden in Genesis 24 und 29, Exodus 2 und Johannes 4 haben ähnliche literarische Züge, aber die Gegensätze sind aufschlussreich. Ihre komplexe Wechselbeziehung stellt einen Interpretationsschlüssel dar. In this study, Eric John Wyckoff proposes a new approach to an ongoing scholarly discussion. How can the relationship among the encounters at wells narrated in the Pentateuch (Genesis 24 and 29, Exodus 2) and the New Testament (John 4) be defined? Does the latter assume the reader's familiarity with the former? If so, then what sort of interpretation of the Torah texts is presupposed, and what significance does this have for the exegesis of the Gospel pericope? The author analyzes the literary parallels and investigates textual clues as to how these came to be intertwined with words and actions of Jesus and thematically refocused in the Fourth Gospel. What comes to light is a complex interrelation which does not fall neatly into a single literary category, inviting readers to interpret the Johannine Samaria narrative in light of three passages from the Pentateuch, and vice versa.
