Next Verse

Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.

Note 2 at Jn. 4:35: Harvest in Israel began around mid-April. If Jesus was speaking literally about four months until harvest, that would place this experience at Jacob's well around the first of December. By looking on page iii and iv of the chronological chart, you can see that would mean that all the events listed after "John the Baptist Imprisoned" until "Returns to Jerusalem at the Feast" happened during a four-month period of time. That would also mean that the gospels are relatively silent about the first eight months after Jesus appeared at the Passover in Jerusalem (Jn. 2:13).
