Context of John 4:43

41And more a great deal believed on account of his word; 42and they said to the woman, [It is] no longer on account of thy saying that we believe, for we have heard him ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world. But after the two days he went forth thence and went away into Galilee, 44for Jesus himself bore witness that a prophet has no honour in his own country. 45When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem during the feast, for they also went to the feast.
