John 8:1 - 8:11

Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg
In this commentary on John 8:1-11, Steve Gregg discusses the historical background of the passage and various theories regarding its transmission and placement in the Gospel of John. He proposes that the story may have originally been part of the Synoptic Gospels' description of Jesus' final week, but was later added to John's Gospel. Gregg also explores the possible location of the scene and the motives behind the actions of the scribes and Pharisees. He ultimately highlights the powerful message of forgiveness and humanity found in Jesus' interaction with the woman caught in adultery.
