I have food to eat that you know not of.
All Commentaries on John 4:32 Go To John 4

Though they still show their accustomed modesty and reverence toward their Master, conversing one with the other, but not daring to put any question to Him. And this they do in other places, desiring to ask Him, but not asking. What then says Christ?
