"You didn't answer my question, why didn't he also forgive the man and tell him to go and not sin anymore?? " I answered as best I could. He challenged the man to stand up and cast the first stone or to let the issue be dropped. If it is dropped, Jesus is off the hook for judging the issue of adultery. I agree with Brummar, this event was not meant to be a model for us to use in judging the wrongs of our fellows. Personally I believe that justice is not served absolutely and simultaneously for all of us in the worldly sense, ever. Justice involves an eternity of working things out. If people get away with stuff in this life time, and they obviously do, then there must be a venue for dealing with stuff beyond the wholeness of time, or the concept of justice becomes meaningless to me. Personally, I figure the man involved suffered greatly for the rest of his life and possible worse in the next life, while the woman was set free. Now that's justice. "Things haven't changed too much in 2000 years, have they?" If I discovered they've changed the length of a nat's eye lash, I would be impressed.
