A woman is caught in the very act of adultery. and Jesus is asked “The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?”
And he sits down on the ground, and starts writing the names of sins in the dust before them. The tension fizzles slowly out of the crowd. The Pharisees continue to demand an answer from
him, though, Jesus ignores them. Finally Jesus looks up at them and says “Go ahead, but let the one who has never committed a sin cast the first stone.”
And he fixes his gaze on the Pharisees, who look away. Everyone is silent, and the tension fizzles out of the crowd. The older men drop their stones.
And suddenly a half-brick comes flying through the air, hits the woman smack in the face; she goes down, and everyone joins in.
But Jesus isn’t looking; he marches to the back of the crowd, grabs an elderly lady by the shoulders, shakes her, and screams: “Mum! You really can be a pain in the arse at times!”
