Episode 13: The Adulterous Variant

September 1, 2021 - Host: Dr. Gregory Hall

You may have heard a someone say, “The Bible says it, I believe it, and that settles it”... implying, at least in part, that every word in their version of the Bible came directly from of the original text. But nothing could be further from the truth, and today we’ll look at a popular passage, in your Bible, that likely wasn’t originally included in John’s gospel.
