Bible Question: Shalom, brothers and sisters. I have a question about John 8:6,8. When Jesus wrote on the ground, we are not told what He wrote. Is it possible, since He knows everyone's heart, that He was writing the sins of the accusers? I cannot get an understanding on why we are told He wrote on the ground, but not what is written. Any ideas? God bless, and peace be with you all, michael |
Bible Answer: Hi Michael, I, too, have heard that that is what He wrote. The Bible doesn't say. We'll just have to take it on faith, that whatever Yeshua wrote pricked their hearts and consciences so that none could say, "I am without sin." Or perhaps He stooped down and wrote on the ground to give those accusers a chance to leave without embarrassment, thus passing on grace even to them? Shalom Cheri |
