Answer Who really knows for sure? Only Jeusu I assume so there is no way to answer your question unless it's in The Bible somewhere and even then the bible was written by man, not God so how would a man know?
It is traditionally believed that Jesus, as the Son of God, had divine knowledge that allowed him to know about the Samaritan woman's past. This knowledge comes from his divine nature rather than human wisdom.
Jesus told the Parable of the Good Samaritan to explain the meaning of neighbor. In this parable, a man is helped by a Samaritan, who goes out of his way to assist someone in need regardless of their background or beliefs, showing that a neighbor is anyone who shows compassion and kindness to others.
The disciples wanted to call down fire from heaven to consume the unwelcoming Samaritan village when they were passing through, but Jesus rebuked them and told them that they didn't know what spirit they were of.
A good thing to ask Jesus could be for guidance, wisdom, or support in times of need. It's important to ask with sincerity and an open heart.
King Solomon, who was known for his great wisdom and is known for the story of the two women claiming the same baby. Daniel, who interpreted dreams and was known for his wisdom in navigating difficult situations. The wise men (Magi) who recognized the significance of Jesus' birth and traveled to worship him.
In Sychar, Jesus spoke with a Samaritan woman at a well, revealing His identity as the Messiah to her. He offered her living water, which symbolized eternal life that He could provide. This encounter led to many Samaritans in the town believing in Jesus as the Savior of the world.
True knowledge and wisdom are available only through Jesus Christ and with the help of God's spirit.
Jesus then told a parable about 'the good Samaritan'.
One parable that Jesus told was about the Good Samaritan. The story was to get people thinking about their neighbors.
Jesus was, is, and will always be "Wisdom."
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.
Jesus counseled Nicodemus on the importance of being born again spiritually to enter the kingdom of God (John 3:1-21), while with the Samaritan woman at the well, Jesus highlighted the living water he offers, symbolizing eternal life and true worship (John 4:1-42). The conversation with Nicodemus focused on spiritual rebirth, while the encounter with the Samaritan woman emphasized the availability of salvation to all, regardless of social or religious background.
The parable of the 'good Samaritan' is found at : Luke 10:30-37
Jesus told the story; Luke transcribed it later
