John Chrysostom — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on John 4:19-24

Patristic A.D. 407
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
“(Hom. xxxiii. 1) There was no necessity for Christ to shew why the fathers worshipped in the mountain, and the Jews in Jerusalem. He therefore was silent on that question; but nevertheless asserted the religious superiority of the Jews on another ground, the ground not of place, but, of knowledge; Ye worship ye know not what, we know what we worship; for salvation if of the Jews.”
