Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

20. These words spake Jesus in the treasury-a division, so called, of the fore court of the temple, part of the court of the women [Josephus, Antiquities, 19.6.2, &c.], which may confirm the genuineness of Joh 8:2-11, as the place where the woman was brought.

no man laid hands on him, &c.-(See on [1807]Joh 7:30). In the dialogue that follows, the conflict waxes sharper on both sides, till rising to its climax, they take up stones to stone him.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

8:17-20 If we knew Christ better, we should know the Father better. Those become vain in their imaginations concerning God, who will not learn of Christ. Those who know not his glory and grace, know not the Father that sent him. The time of our departure out of the world, depends upon God. Our enemies cannot hasten it any sooner, nor can our friends delay it any longer, than the time appointed of the Father. Every true believer can look up and say with pleasure, My times are in thy hand, and better there than in my own. To all God's purposes there is a time.

Luke 21:1 And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury.
John 7:14 But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and began to teach.
