Chapter 8 Jesus appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.” Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and LEAVE YOUR LIFE OF SIN.”

To: Hebrews 11:6
1) I’ve always wondered where the dude committing adultery with her was ... Did he have friends in high places? Perhaps a few denarii changed hands? Something stinks ...
2) Overly eager? Yes. Also devious and morally compromised.
Hmmm ... we’re all sinners ... perhaps best we not be eager accusers. And make sure we’re placing our faith, and our life, in Jesus, the ultimate Friend in High Places.

Generally, I don't care for cubism either, but He Qi amuses me greatly. Just ignore his.
Yes, the whole thing stank, as Jesus quickly revealed, to their utter astonishment: a classic case of "they didn't see that coming."

Why was there only the ‘woman’?
Where was the man?
It takes two to tango...........

I remember asking my Sunday School teacher that very question (#1) when I was a lad. She didn’t have an answer.

Since they caught her in the very act, they were spying on her. Perverts. And, what about the man?

Some painters forgot to paint her messed up hair. Wouldn’t have been all set and nice since they jerked her from the middle of the scene.

I am fascinated with the various interpretations of this scripture. Since Jewish law called for stoning, the scribes and pharisees were attempting to ensnare Jesus. Roman law required that the man be presented WITH the woman in a court of law. Jesus is able to get to the heart of the matter which is sin.

Good Morning Dan, and happy ‘new week’ to all!
In our brokenness, we’ve all knelt before Him in the same way- and heard our reprieve.
#3, #4, #5 Cranach family: such venomous accusers.
#27 Wonderful! Anyone know the artist?
#31 Morelli

A favorite story Dan, thank you!
