What is Jesus writing on the ground?

[SIC]

At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. ³ The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group ⁴ and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. ⁵ In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” ⁶ They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him.

But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger.⁷ When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” ⁸ Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.

⁹ At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there.¹⁰ Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”

¹¹ “No one, sir,” she said.

“Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”

 

Now Jesus stoops down and writes twice on the ground.What exactly does He write?

I wasn't kidding.But I'll take your advice. Where God's Word is silent I'll remain silent

I would speculate that Jesus was writing the sins of the people assembled. That's just my opinion.

A person can only speculate because the Bible is silent on what Jesus wrote on the ground.

If everything Jesus said, did, and wrote had to be put in books there would be so many books that maybe not even the entire Earth would have room for them.

There are many things Jesus told His apostles in private that I wish we knew. But we don't. This is like that. Whatever He wrote it wasn't meant to go down in His written history.

This article was full of Jewish history and tradition that help to explain the passage.  It is worth reading.  Thank you.

What God has kept silent in the Bible He had a reason for us not to know. Maybe someday we will be told.
