but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Now very early in the morning, he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him. He sat down, and taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery. Having set her in the middle, they told him, \u201cTeacher, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act. Now in our law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. What then do you say about her?\u201d They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of.
\nBut Jesus stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger. But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, \u201cHe who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her.\u201d Again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
\nThey, when they heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last. Jesus was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle. Jesus, standing up, saw her and said, \u201cWoman, where are your accusers? Did no one condemn you?\u201d
\nShe said, \u201cNo one, Lord.\u201d
\nJesus said, \u201cNeither do I condemn you. Go your way. From now on, sin no more.\u201d
\nAgain, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, \u201cI am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.\u201d<\/p>\n
