::::: #8: With all of the checking and rechecking, it is difficult for portion to simply be inserted.  Sure, scribal notes have been integrated, but that's different.  Her sin was punishable by death, but it seems that Jesus was trying to use her as an example to show the radical change he was teaching.  He was not in any way condoning adultery, but he was demonstrating that even the most grievous sin can be forgiven.  Those who thought themselves righteous were shown to be in a worse place than her, because she was (presumably) repentant, while they were clearly not repentant of their sins. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 13:33, 5 April 2017 (EDT)

::::::I also question #5.  It's true that Jesus sometimes spoke about himself in the third person, but if he was risen from the dead, would he really need to explain the history of himself in third person? He could just open their eyes and show them, rather than going to the work of explaining it.  I don't know--no one does, but this sound questionable to me. Besides, on the road to Amadeus, it says he "talked with them" and answered questions.  Hebrews is a one-sided speech or letter, not a conversation.  I know people took much longer durations in conversation to speak before giving others their turn to speak, but this is a non-stop message. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 13:42, 5 April 2017 (EDT)
