  • John 8:3-20
    The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman. She had been caught committing adultery. They made her stand in front of the group.They said to Jesus,“ Teacher, this woman was caught sleeping with a man who was not her husband.In the Law, Moses commanded us to kill such women by throwing stones at them. Now what do you say?”They were trying to trap Jesus with that question. They wanted to have a reason to bring charges against him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger.They kept asking him questions. So he stood up and said to them,“ Has any one of you not sinned? Then you be the first to throw a stone at her.”He bent down again and wrote on the ground.Those who heard what he had said began to go away. They left one at a time, the older ones first. Soon only Jesus was left. The woman was still standing there.Jesus stood up and asked her,“ Woman, where are they? Hasn’t anyone found you guilty?”“ No one, sir,” she said.“ Then I don’t find you guilty either,” Jesus said.“ Go now and leave your life of sin.”Jesus spoke to the people again. He said,“ I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in darkness. They will have that light. They will have life.”The Pharisees argued with him.“ Here you are,” they said,“ appearing as your own witness. But your witness does not count.”Jesus answered,“ Even if I am a witness about myself, what I say does count. I know where I came from. And I know where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going.You judge by human standards. I don’t judge anyone.But if I do judge, what I decide is true. This is because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me.Your own Law says that the witness of two people proves the truth about something.I am a witness about myself. The other witness about me is the Father, who sent me.”Then they asked him,“ Where is your father?”“ You do not know me or my Father,” Jesus replied.“ If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”He spoke these words while he was teaching in the temple courtyard. He was near the place where the offerings were put. But no one arrested him. That’s because the time for him to die had not yet come.
