Context of John 8:10

8Then he bent himself down again and he wrote on the ground. 9When they heard what Jesus said, the people began to go away. They went one by one. The older people went first. After some time, only Jesus remained with the woman. She was still standing there. Jesus stood up. He said to her, ‘Woman, where are they? Is there nobody still here who wants to punish you?’ 11She said, ‘There is nobody, sir.’ So Jesus said, ‘I also do not want to punish you. Go away now and change the way you live. Do not do wrong things again.’] 12Jesus spoke to the people again. He said, ‘I am the light of the world. Those people who become my disciples will never walk in the dark. No, they will have the light that gives life.’

• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1010. Woman, &c.--What inimitable tenderness and grace!
