Remarks:
According to Michael the Great, Symeon reports that Jesus conversed with the Samaritan woman on Sunday (John 4,7-23). Actually Symeon the Potter is widely known as a poet and no mention is found of him as the author of other literary genres. Even though the use of poetry as a source for Michael is unusual, it is likely that this brief note derives from one of his poems.
