John 8:10 Meaning and Commentary

John 8:10

When Jesus had lift himself up
From the earth, towards which he stooped, and on which he had been writing:

and saw none but the woman;
that is, none of those that had brought her there, and had accused her to him:

he said unto her, woman, where are those thine accusers?
the Syriac and Arabic versions read only, "where are these?" these men, that brought thee here, and charged thee with this crime:

hath no man condemned thee?
has no one offered to do unto thee what I proposed? what, not one that could take up a stone, and cast at thee? was there not one of them free from this sin? could no man take upon him to execute this sentence?

John 8:10 In-Context

8 Then he bent down again and continued writing on the ground.

9 One by one, beginning with the older men, the scribes and Pharisees left. Jesus was left alone with the woman.

10 Then Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Where did they go? Has anyone condemned you?"

11 The woman answered, "No one, sir." Jesus said, "I don't condemn you either. Go! From now on don't sin."

12 Jesus spoke to the Pharisees again. He said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will have a life filled with light and will never live in the dark."
