Lots of questions for heaven.Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05061067970781919577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-54693163303147915572015-05-17T22:03:36.295-04:002015-05-17T22:03:36.295-04:00What an interesting post, Golden.

I've heard the "trap" theory before in a sermon preached a number of years ago. It reinforces Jesus' intelligence, His compassion, understanding, and His love for people of all walks of life. Thanks for the reminder.Martha W.

But Jesus' solution was such a lesson in compassion, first for the woman, and also for her accusers. Everyone who was present ended up a winner...and walked away with a new perspective on compassion. What they chose to do with that isn't known.<br /><br />Except the man she committed adultery with. He wasn't brought before Jesus. Hmmmm.... now that makes me wonder about him. Hmmm.... I wonder if he was in the crowd with her accusers. It's certainly possible. Interesting thought. If he was present, then he got a lesson in compassion as well. If not, he might have been the biggest loser of all in that whole scheme.<br /><br />Food for thought. :)Pam Hillmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604636348596615139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-82541655298961516382015-05-17T02:31:38.253-04:002015-05-17T02:31:38.253-04:00Very interesting research on the adulterous woman ...Very interesting research on the adulterous woman that I had not heard; just assumed she was a harlot.
