JESUS AND THE ACCUSED WOMAN.

And they went every man unto his own house: but Jesus went unto the

mount of Olives.

And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the

people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them. And the

scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman taken in adultery; and having

set her in the midst, they say unto him, "Teacher, this woman hath

been taken in adultery, in the very act. Now in the law Moses

commanded us to stone such: what then sayest thou of her?" And this

they said, trying him, that they might have whereof to accuse him.

But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground. But

when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself and said unto

them, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at

her."

And again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.

And they, when they heard it, went out one by one, beginning from the

eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman,

where she was, in the midst. And Jesus lifted up himself, and said

unto her, "Woman, where are they? did no man condemn thee?"
