God's Mercy and human frailty meet - 5th Sunday of Lent

Published: March 30, 2022, midnight

God's Mercy and human frailty meet: Continuing the theme of compassion, today's account of the woman caught in adultery provides a wonderful portrait of Jesus. For Jesus' opponents, the woman does not matter. She is just a "thing" they can use to try to test Jesus' loyalty to the Law. Jesus cuts through this, drives away the hypocrites, and deals with the woman as a person deserving compassion. In sending her on her way, he asks that she sin no more.
