John 8:5

8:5 In the law Moses commanded us to stone to death ¹  such women. ²  What then do you say?”

John 8:17

8:17 It is written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. ³ 

John 15:25

15:25 Now this happened ⁴  to fulfill the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without reason.’ ⁵ 

[8:5]  ¹ sn An allusion to Lev 20:10 and Deut 22:22-24.

[8:5]  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.

[8:17]  ³ sn An allusion to Deut 17:6.

[15:25]  ⁵ tn The words “this happened” are not in the Greek text but are supplied to complete an ellipsis.

[15:25]  ⁶ sn A quotation from Ps 35:19 and Ps 69:4. As a technical term law (νόμος, nomos) is usually restricted to the Pentateuch (the first five books of the OT), but here it must have a broader reference, since the quotation is from Ps 35:19 or Ps 69:4. The latter is the more likely source for the quoted words, since it is cited elsewhere in John’s Gospel (2:17 and 19:29, in both instances in contexts associated with Jesus’ suffering and death).
