John 4:22 Douay-Rheims

You adore that which you know not: we adore that which we know; for salvation is of the Jews.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

(in Joan. Tr. xv. c. 26) It is saying much for the Jews, to declare in their name, We worship what we know. But He does not speak for the reprobate Jews, but for that party from whom the Apostles and the Prophets came. Such were all those saints who laid the prices of their possessions at the Apostle’s feet.
