John4:17

17 The woman answered, and said, I have no husband . Jesus answered, and said, Thou hast well said, I have no husband :

That is, none who is my lawful Husband; she denieth not that she had one, whom she used, and lived with as an Husband, but that she had any legal Husband, to whom the clave, and to no other; still she goeth on, thinking to deceive Christ, and to put tricks upon him

Christ tells her, she in this did speak truth; he knew she had no legal Husband.
