The Woman Taken in Adultery (Part 2)

The Life and Teachings of Christ
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg

In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the story of the woman taken in adultery from the Bible. He argues that the Pharisees' attempt to trap Jesus with a moral quandary fails because their own hypocrisy is exposed. While Jesus doesn't condone the woman's actions, He shows her mercy, saying "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her." This story demonstrates the importance of acknowledging immoral behavior while also showing forgiveness and love.
