And no such implication was brought up by Jesus. To me that rules it out.
I hold to the view that Jesus embarrassed the accusers away by pointing out things they had done which ought to earn them death or at least shame. Perhaps a list of mistresses And therefore they dispersed. His question at the end is telling: does anyone accuse? The deciding matter was the lack of willing witnesses.
Be careful about holding your opinion as “teaching.”
A couple more things to consider in this incident.
1. The witnesses (accusers) were to begin the stoning, by casting the first stones. (Apparently none of these “witnesses” wanted that honor.)
2. Anyone who bore false witness against another was sentenced to the same punishment the accused would have received. (In a capital case such as this, false witnesses were to be executed.)
Perhaps what Jesus stooped and wrote on the ground were the citations from the Law governing the case at hand.
I was not doing any such thing... Were you?
Yeah...You have to wonder what Jesus was “writing in the dust” as the accusers were gathered ‘round!
