![]() All the people came to him and he sat down and began to teach them. 2 Early in the morning he came again to the temple. Then each of them went home, 8:1 while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. John 7:53–8:11 in the New Revised Standard Version reads as follows: The passage appears to have been included in some texts by the 4th century and became generally accepted by the 5th century. However, its originality has been defended by a minority of scholars who believe in the Byzantine priority hypothesis. This has been the view of "most NT scholars, including most evangelical NT scholars, for well over a century" (written in 2009). Although it is included in most modern translations (one notable exception being the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures) it is typically noted as a later interpolation, as it is by Novum Testamentum Graece NA28. There is now a broad academic consensus that the passage is a later interpolation added after the earliest known manuscripts of the Gospel of John. Jesus says that he too does not condemn her and tells her to go and sin no more. Jesus asks the woman if anyone has condemned her and she answers no. The accusers and congregants depart, realizing not one of them is without sin either, leaving Jesus alone with the woman. Jesus begins to write something on the ground using his finger when the woman's accusers continue their challenge, he states that the one who is without sin is the one who should cast the first stone at her. They tell Jesus that the punishment for someone like her should be stoning, as prescribed by Mosaic Law. They bring in a woman, accusing her of committing adultery, claiming she was caught in the very act. A group of scribes and Pharisees confronts Jesus, interrupting his teaching. In the passage, Jesus was teaching in the Temple after coming from the Mount of Olives. Jesus and the woman taken in adultery (or the Pericope Adulterae) is a most likely pseudepigraphical passage ( pericope) found in John 7:53– 8:11 of the New Testament.
