John 8:1-7

1 But Yeshua went to the Mount of Olives.
2 At daybreak, he appeared again in the Temple Court, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them.
3 The Torah-teachers and the P'rushim brought in a woman who had been caught committing adultery and made her stand in the center of the group.
4 Then they said to him, "Rabbi, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.
5 Now in our Torah, Moshe commanded that such a woman be stoned to death. What do you say about it?"
6 They said this to trap him, so that they might have ground for bringing charges against him; but Yeshua bent down and began writing in the dust with his finger.
7 When they kept questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "The one of you who is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."
