Two different kinds of truth

Tonight at small group we were talking about Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:1-42). Something that stood out to me was her response when Jesus asked her to go get her husband. She responded by saying, "I have no husband." Did she tell the truth? Yes. Even Jesus said, “You’re right! You don’t have a husband—for you have had five husbands, and you aren’t even married to the man you’re living with now. You certainly spoke the truth!” She did tell the truth, but notice how Jesus' version of the truth (divulging all the details of the woman's life) is more thorough, complete, and transparent. It's a good example of how sometimes we think we're telling the truth or living the truth, but maybe we need to take a closer look at the Truth's (Jesus') example.
