"O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters." Jeremiah 17:3 This said Jesus, after He proclaimed Himself to be that Living Water. See the Water Libation. John 7:37 "In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink."

Footnotes: John 8:11 The most ancient authorities omit 7.53-8.11; other authorities add the passage here or after 7.36 or after 21.25 or after Luke 21.38, with variations of text

The case was not dismissed because there were no witnesses to accuse the woman; she did not get off on a technicality. The case was dismissed because Jesus Christ would personally pay the price for her sin by being nailed to a cross and enduring the wrath of the Father in her place.

They should have brought the man to be stoned with her. The law state’s both are to be stoned not just the woman as the Pharisees say. It would have been unlawful to Stone her. Jesus doesn’t break the law. And it was not the person who was without sin who should cast the first stone but the law states that it’s the witnesses who are to throw the first stones then the rest of the congregation. I think Jesus is pointing out their sinfulness, hypocrisy (maybe they committed adultery as well) and lawfully handling the case. I did like this sermon though.

Case Dismissed!!

[@heatherclarke2361]

Great message but just speaking too fast a good dish should be eaten slowly so it will digest properly..love the message though

[@Michael-A]

Jesus came to fulfill the Law, and that is what this passage is all about. The first thing Jesus answered the Pharisees with disarmed them, they dropped their rocks and left. Then Jesus referred back to the Law of Moses when He asked about her accusers. She said they all were gone. You see, the Law of Moses given him by God was very precise about Capital Punishment (the death penalty). The Torah (law) REQUIRES that BEFORE you may execute the death penalty you must have at least two witnesses who agree on every point BEFORE you can execute someone for violating the law. But since Jesus had already disarmed her accusers and they had all left, the Death Penalty could NOT be invoked because the required two witnesses were no longer accusing her. Jesus asking the woman "where are those accusers of yours" is hearkening back to the Law, making it ILLEGAL for anyone to condemn her to death BECAUSE the requirements of that law were not satisfied now. So Jesus, by disarming the witnesses against her also delivered her from Death. See how He fulfilled the Law of Moses, by the Letter and by the Holy Spirit too! What is important even more so is that this is exactly HOW Jesus saves us too! He has paid the debt for sin of all the world, thereby satisfying the Law as a substitution for all of us, therefore Satan is JUDGED for murdering the ONLY Righteous man on earth. So Jesus while fulfilling the Law has disarmed all the accusations against US, making them legally harmless lies, because Jesus the Truth has set us free from that death penalty, swallowing it up in the sacrifice He made for us. Then He gives us Life! Eternal Life! Furthermore; Jesus said He came not to abolish the Law, but fulfill it, and in this story He did fill full the Law by saving the accused from death by disarming her accusers; the Pharisee witnesses against her according to the Letter and Spirit of the Law. No witnesses? No capital punishment. That's the LAW. Michael A

If Jesus was able to write on the ground ( we are never told what he wrote), would it not have made more sense had Jesus written down his own gospel from his own hands, so that we would be left in no doubt whatsoever as to what he actually wanted from mankind written in absolutely unambiguous crystal clear words so that it could not be taken out of context by anyone. Leaving it up to fallible humans decades after he'd died was only going to muddy the water.

[@chul-habaik5649]

You have a interesting idea but if you think more deeply you will realize that Jesus truly focused on raising his disciples for his three years of ministry on earth. Although Jesus wrote his own bible, if there was nobody could preserve his words or understand his words and follow his life of mission, what the point of just writing some books is! Jesus spent his time for the most important mission, raising his disciples so that his ministry would be continued after he died, was resurrected and ascended. Actually, that is what Jesus did and that is what we are supposed to do now! How many people are willing to sacrifice to their lives, live as disciples of Jesus and raise people as disciples of Jesus!

[@chriskeith5742]

I don't know we can use this verse in that manner. John 8 1-11 was not in John's original Gospel.
