After Stephen's murder by the religious leaders (Acts 7:54-60), there was a large scale persecution of the new believers in Jesus (Acts 8:1-3). Many people left Jerusalem; some travelled north into Samaria. It was safer; the zealous Jews despised the Samaritans and would not go there, even to travel through the region, because of their mixed race and religious background (John 4:9).
