NETBible

Our fathers worshiped on this mountain,¹ and you people² say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.”³

NET Notes

¹sn This mountain refers to Mount Gerizim, where the Samaritan shrine was located.

²tn The word “people” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied to indicate that the Greek verb translated “say” is second person plural and thus refers to more than Jesus alone.

³map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.
