John 8:2–6

AN ADULTERESS FORGIVEN

2 At dawn he went to the templee again, and all the people were coming to him.f He sat downg and began to teach them.

3 Then the scribes and the Phariseesh brought a woman caught in adultery,i making her stand in the center. 4 “Teacher,” they said to him, “this woman was caught in the act of committing adultery.j 5 In the law Mosesk commanded us to stone such women.l So what do you say?” 6 They asked this to trap him,m in order that they might have evidence to accuse him.

Jesus stooped down and started writing on the ground with his finger.
