Then Jesus said to her In this passage, Jesus is addressing a woman who is identified earlier in the chapter as a sinner. This interaction takes place in the house of Simon the Pharisee, where Jesus is dining. The setting is significant as it highlights the tension between Jesus and the religious leaders of the time. The Pharisees were known for their strict adherence to the Law and often looked down upon those they considered sinners.

Witness to Others The event serves as a testimony to others about the transformative power of Jesus' forgiveness. Believers are encouraged to share their own accounts of grace.(48) Thy sins are forgiven.--Better, as before, Thy sins have been forgiven. The words throw light upon the meaning and force of all like formulae of absolution. It is, perhaps, matter for regret that any other formula, such as the Absolvo te, which dates, be it remembered, from the thirteenth century, has ever been substituted for them. They did not for the first time convey forgiveness. That had been, as the context indicates, sealed and assured before by an unspoken absolution. But they came as words of power from the great Absolver, to banish every lingering doubt or fear, to confirm every faint and trembling hope that had been kindled in the heart of the penitent. He knew the secrets of her soul, and could therefore affirm in the fulness of His knowledge that she fulfilled the conditions of forgiveness. Others, it is clear, can only so affirm in proportion as their insight approximates to His.Verse 48. - And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. Then, turning again to the woman, in her deep penitence, and at the same time in her deep joy - joy springing from her newly found peace - he formally renews to her the assurance of that pardon which she already was conscious of; but in renewing it the Lord mentioned no more "her many sins," as in the first place (ver. 47), but simply, "thy sins," thus reducing, as Stier remarks, at last both her and Simon to a common level.
