that was said when the men were trying to stone the prostitute but then jesus sais it and none of the men were without sin

the verb LET takes an object. "let me help you....let him go ...let us leave ..let her have it

therefore Let HIM who is without sin cast the first stone.

For some reason newscasters have forgotten that prepositions and transitive verbs (ie let) take OBJECTS. "Just sent the fax to my wife and I." is incorrect ..(one of my PhD,M.D. coworkers said that...as you can see this simple grammatical mistake has filtered down to "edumacated" people) )..send it to me...send it to my wife and me is correct. to me, him her, us, ...them

This refers to the time when a young woman was to be stoned (illegally) by a lynch mob because the crown had claimed that she had committed adultery. By making this statement Jesus made them all realise that all of us are sinners. At the end, no one was left to condemn the woman, Jesus sent her on her way with the words 'Neither do I condemn you - Go - but sin no more...' The whole story can be found in John's gospel Chapter 8, with the actual words of the question in John chapter 8, verse 7.

In the specific instance, Jesus spoke to a crowd that had come after a woman caught in adultery to stone her for her sin according to religious law. Jesus' point was, which one of you in this crowd is so good and so pure, that you can legitimately condemn this woman for her sin? Let that one step forward and throw the first stone. Of course, some young hotheads were about to do it, but the older folks held them back, the crowd broke up, and gradually everyone went on about their business, leaving the woman with Jesus. It is then that Jesus tells her, "Is there no one left to condemn you? Neither do I. Go, and do not sin again." That is grace!

its in reference to a women caught in adultery. Jesus kneeled down in the sand and wrote then he said he that is without sin cast the first stone and they one by one turned away. Jesus then asked the women where are thy accusers she said their are none and he said neither do i condemn thee go and send no more.

This was when the people brought a women to Jesus, who was caught in adultery, they then asked Jesus, what should be done to her? As Moses said that they should be stoned to death. Then Jesus replied let those without sin cast the first stone. After all the bible says we have al sinned and fallen from the glory of God.
