‏ John 4:29

All things that ever I did ( παντα α εποιησα ).

Ha, not οσα (as many as), no "ever" in the Greek. But a guilty conscience (verse 18f.) led her to exaggerate a bit.

Can this be the Christ? ( μητ ουτος εστιν ο Χριστοσ; ). She is already convinced herself (verses 26f.), but she puts the question in a hesitant form to avoid arousing opposition. With a woman's intuition she avoided ουκ and uses μητ. She does not take sides, but piques their curiosity.
