This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Joh 8:4. Διδάσκαλε, teacher [Master]) The reason [is implied in the title by which they address Him], why they require Him to give His decision.-ἐπαυτοφώρῳ, in the very act) Such scandalous acts are frequently perpetrated about the time of feasts. Comp. ch. Joh 7:37. What follows also confirms the truth of this history, as at Joh 8:12, the mention of the darkness, “He that followeth Me, shall not walk in darkness,” when this verse is compared with it, inasmuch as treating of adultery, a work of darkness; and at Joh 8:15, concerning judgment, “Ye judge after the flesh, I judge no man,” comparing with it Joh 8:11, “Neither do I condemn thee.”
