John 8:1-5 ▼

1 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

2 Early in the morning He came back into the temple [court], and all the people were coming to Him. He sat down and began teaching them.

3 Now the scribes and Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery. They made her stand in the center of the court,

4 and they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the very act of adultery.

5 Now in the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women [to death]. So what do You say [to do with her—what is Your sentence]?”
