Hi Dr. Hughes,
Really enjoyed your conversation with Dr. Matt Bates. I was just curious if I could ask you a few brief questions about the topic as I am looking for various topics to study for my doctoral work. I don’t know if you have an email to contact.
Thanks!

Justin, I’m happy to help: sogdia at gmail dot com
I dont understand. Did the women caught in adultery really happen or not? If it didnt then do you really think Christ would want someone to make up a situation that he was supposedly involved in, then publish it? Isnt that adding to the Bible? Didnt Paul say we take the whole bible rightly diveded? Therefore no one is suppose to add or take from it. I for one have always read and took it for what it is; when it comes to the woman caught in adultery. However when people are saying that it was added and even though it doesnt contradict the bible specifically but still a fabricated story that Christ was involved in. Isnt that lying? Dont all liars have thier place in the lake of fire? Please help me understand. I would really appreciate it.
As I argue in my NovT article, I think this incident really happened and circulated in one of the early collections of stories about Jesus’ life and teaching. It wasn’t included as part of any of the Gospels, however, and this led some people who really cherished this story to add it on to the Gospels in various places (most famously at John 7:53-8:11). So I don’t see it as at all fabricated, but just a story in search of a “home” in the biblical record.
