This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Joh 8:12. Πάλιν, again) as at ch. 7. Jesus is wont to take the beginnings of His discourses from the doctrine of salvation: then, when men contradict. He adds a proof.-τὸ φῶς, the Light) An expression suitable to the time of His speaking, the morning, and opposed to the works of darkness, such as is adultery.-τοῦ κίσμου, of the world) the whole world.-ὁ ἀκολουθῶν, he who follows) By this very expression He shows, that adultery is by no means sanctioned by Him, although He did not pronounce condemnation on the adulteress.
