Is the story of the woman caught in adultery in the oldest manuscripts of the Bible?
The Bible text was the subject of a process of evolution over a period of many centuries, and the story of the woman caught in adultery is an example of this process. It was not originally part of the Gospel of John (7:53-8:11) and is completely absent from the early manuscripts of John in Greek. There are no comments on it by the early Greek church writers on John in its first thousand years. In a few late copies where it actually appears, it is sometimes comes after 7:36 instead of where we now find it, or at the end of John, or even inserted into Luke (after Luke 21:38).
