"Why don't you wash your hands ceremonially before you eat?" The Pharisees ask Jesus. "You know, to show God you know how very, very dirty you are?"
Jesus told them they had a lot to learn about water...and about dirt.
One of the images I love involving water and Jesus is this statue in a courtyard in the Chester Cathedral--it's Jesus and the Samaritan woman. She's giving him water--or is it he who gives it to her? And how do we tell and is it even important?
What's important is water, pure living water that sustains life.
