NETBible

In the law Moses commanded us to stone to death 1  such women. 2  What then do you say?”

NET Notes

1 sn An allusion to Lev 20:10 and Deut 22:22-24.

2 sn The accusers themselves subtly misrepresented the law. The Mosaic law stated that in the case of adultery, both the man and woman must be put to death (Lev 20:10, Deut 22:22), but they mentioned only such women.
