A Samaritan woman would wear a dress. The dresses were long in length, with various colors. Samaritan women head were covered with a shawl or a thin-like cloth material.

In John 4:12 Jesus asks "Are you greater than our father Jacob..." Jesus was talking to the Samaritan woman at the well. She was amazed that anyone would allow a Samaritan to drink from this well as they were not liked by other Jews. Jesus told the Samaritan woman he could give her a drink that she would never be thirsty again. This of course was in reference to the word of his preaching.

You can find the story of the woman at the well in the Bible in the Gospel of John, specifically in John 4:4-42. This passage describes Jesus' encounter with a Samaritan woman at a well, where he offers her living water and reveals that he is the Messiah.

The Gospel of John presents Samaritans favorably in three instances: the encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4), the healing of the Samaritan leper (Luke 17:11-19), and the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37).

In talking to a Samaritan woman at a well, Jesus explained what the requirements of pure worship are: “Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshipers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for, indeed, the Father is looking for suchlike ones to worship him.(John 4:23, 24)
