My comment was on his authority to act or not act as he did, given that he is literally God. Since the account makes the point that Christ was writing in the dust, you gotta figure Christ was writing out all the faults of all the accusers there as well as the pertinent points of the Law all were in violation there-of.
In the end, there was just God in Flesh and sinner, and God in flesh forgave her when he rightfully could have sent her to hell. That is what Paul was referring to in the book of Hebrews when he described Jesus as being of the priestly order of Melchizidek. So much for mumbo jumbo!
I’m not calling it mumbo jumbo from the thoughtful bible observer’s perspective, but the angry men’s. They wouldn’t know Melchizadek from a hole in the wall (if they did, then they wouldn’t have treated Christ that way in the first place).
Anyhow qua God he had absolute right to pardon.
