1 Mas Jesus foi para o Monte das Oliveiras.

João 8:1 Meaning and Commentary

John 8:1

Jesus went unto the Mount of Olives.
] Which lay eastward of Jerusalem, about a mile from it; hither Christ went on the evening of the last day of the feast of tabernacles; partly to decline the danger, and avoid the snares the Jews might lay for him in the night season; having been disappointed and confounded in the daytime; and it may be for the sake of recreation and diversion, to sup with his dear friends Lazarus, Martha, and Mary, who lived at Bethany, not far from this mount; and chiefly for private prayer to God, on account of himself as man, and for his disciples, and for the spread of his Gospel, and for the enlargement of his interest; this being his common and usual method, ( Luke 21:37 ) .

João 8:1 In-Context

1 Mas Jesus foi para o Monte das Oliveiras.
2 Pela manhã cedo voltou ao templo, e todo o povo vinha ter com ele; e Jesus, sentando-se o ensinava.
3 Então os escribas e fariseus trouxeram-lhe uma mulher apanhada em adultério; e pondo-a no meio,
4 disseram-lhe: Mestre, esta mulher foi apanhada em flagrante adultério.
5 Ora, Moisés nos ordena na lei que as tais sejam apedrejadas. Tu, pois, que dizes?
