The contributors to this volume (J.D. Punch, Jennifer Knust, Tommy
Wasserman, Chris Keith, Maurice Robinson, and Larry Hurtado)
re-examine the Pericope Adulterae (John 7.53-8.11) asking afresh
the question of the paragraph's authenticity. Each contributor not
only presents the reader with arguments for or against the
pericope's authenticity but also with viable theories on how and
why the earliest extant manuscripts omit the passage. Readers are
encouraged to evaluate manuscript witnesses, scribal tendencies,
patristic witnesses, and internal evidence to assess the
plausibility of each contributor's proposal. Readers are presented
with cutting-edge research on the pericope from both scholarly
camps: those who argue for its originality, and those who regard it
as a later scribal interpolation. In so doing, the volume brings
readers face-to-face with the most recent evidence and arguments
(several of which are made here for the first time, with new
evidence is brought to the table), allowing readers to engage in
the controversy and weigh the evidence for themselves.
