This paper examines two passages from the New Testament from the perspective of anthropology of writing. In the so-called pericope adulterae in the Gospel of John (8, 1-11) Jesus, when asked about the sentence to be inflicted on the adulteress, prefers not to answer and writes a text on the ground which the Evangelist does not say which it is. This paper suggests an interpretation of the episode that takes into account the prescriptions of the Mosaic Law on adultery. The second passage analysed here is from the Gospel of Luke (4, 14-20), in which Jesus reads in the synagogue from a passage taken from the book of the prophet Isaiah.

Abstract
This paper examines two passages from the New Testament from the perspective of anthropology of writing. In the so-called pericope adulterae in the Gospel of John (8, 1-11) Jesus, when asked about the sentence to be inflicted on the adulteress, prefers not to answer and writes a text on the ground which the Evangelist does not say which it is. This paper suggests an interpretation of the episode that takes into account the prescriptions of the Mosaic Law on adultery. The second passage analysed here is from the Gospel of Luke (4, 14-20), in which Jesus reads in the synagogue from a passage taken from the book of the prophet Isaiah.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
