Question 10

What amazing answer did Jesus give that got himself out of this trap?


Bible

John 8:7

"He said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her."
Stacks Image 367

Answer

Rather than pronounce sentence upon the woman, Jesus invited the accuser who was without sin to throw the first stone at her. He didn’t deny the law and say adultery was ok. Instead, he turned on the accusers, making them as guilty as the woman.
