AAAAAAH it was HIS job to execute her then.
he heard their testimony and he knew it was true.
So again, if this LATER EDITION to the Greek text is true... it looks like we have a sinful lamb problem...disobeying daddy's torah. A judge doesn't have the RIGHT to dismiss witnesses in a capitol case.
Really Ish.
Talmudic View according to the Sages.

Leviticus 20:10;
Mishna Sanhedrin 11:1).
The death penalty has not been administered since the Sanhedrin left their court room on the Temple mount in the years preceding the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem (nor can it possibly resume until they return there) (Bavli
Sanhedrin 41a).
The standard of evidence is two (
Deuteronomy 7:6) adult, male, non-related,
non-sinning (
Exodus 23:1) witnesses who warned the violators immediately prior to their sin that they would be killed by strangulation. The witnesses do not need to see, to use the Talmud's (
Makkot 7a) analogy, like a eye-color brush in its tube, but rather to see them acting as lovers do (Rambam
Issurei Biah 1:19). However, the Mishna does record (
Makkot 1:10), that any court which can't find a way to exempt all cases but at most one in seven (some say seventy) years is a murderous court. Suffice to say, such executions were not at all common
Torah veiw
Deuteronomy 17:6
On the evidence of two witnesses or of three witnesses the one who is to die shall be put to death; a person shall not be put to death on the evidence of one witness.
Leviticus 20:10
10 And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
John 8:1-11
8 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Yeshua stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Yeshua was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Yeshua had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her,
Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said,
No man, Lord. And Yeshua said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
Where was the man, if they caught them in the act, he should have been brought as well according to Torah and Talmud. Where we're the witnesses required by Torah and Talmud. The Pharisee brought her but were not the witnesses. He judged according to Torah and the Talmudic veiw that was prevalent during Yeshuas time.
story isn't real any way so who knows, it's in the hands of the story teller.
If I were making that one up I'd say he slipped out the window and ran away. What story would you make up when retelling this midrash?
There is absolutely no commandment that says if you catch one criminal but not the other you can't punish the one.
Where did you get that from? Bunch of thieves run, ,1 gets away so not allowed to prosecute the ones you got? come now
So what your saying is you beleive that there are intentional fabrications in the Gospel. I am 100 percent with you if you want to say bad translations that create logic and linguistic errors. But if your saying the that Adonai allowed complete frabications to be presented as truth in what is declared as the whole truth breathed by G-d confirmed by Rauch Hakodesh, then I believe you got things twisted.
