ot the law, is accursed.
(50)Nicodemus saith unto them, (the same person who came to him by
night, being one of their body,) (51)Doth our law condemn a man,
without first hearing his defence, and knowing what he hath done?
(52)They answered and said to him, Art thou not from Galilee too?
Search and see: for a prophet, out of Galilee, never was raised up.
(53)So each went to his own home.

CHAP. VIII.

THEN Jesus went to the mount of Olives. (2)But early in the morning he
came again to the temple, and all the people came to him; and sitting
down he taught them. (3)Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a
woman caught in adultery; and placing her in the midst, (4)they say
unto him, Master, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act.
(5)Now Moses in the law commanded, that such women should be stoned:
therefore what sayest thou? (6)But this they said, trying to entrap

know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I
come, nor whither I am going. (15)Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no
man. (16)But though I should judge, my judgment is true: for I am not
alone, but I and the Father who sent me. (17)Now even in your law it is
written, that the testimony of two men is true. (18)I am a witness for
