John 8 is the eighth chapter in the Gospel of John in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It continues the account of Jesus' debate with the Pharisees after the Feast of Tabernacles, which began in the previous chapter. Verses 1-11, along with John 7:53, form a pericope which is missing from some ancient Greek manuscripts.
Relocate passage: Family 1, minuscules 20, 37, 135, 207, 301, 347, and nearly all Armenian translations place the pericope after John 21:25; Family 13 place it after Luke 21:38; a corrector to Minuscule 1333 added 8:3–11 after Luke 24:53; and Minuscule 225 includes the pericope after John 7:36.

A number of papers in the years following responded to Newton, notably John Berriman in 1741, who had seen at least some of Newton's text prior to publication. Later, Frederick Nolan in 1815, Ebenezer Henderson in 1830 and John William Burgon in the Revision Revised in 1883 all contributed substantially to the verse discussion.
The later narrative in the Gospel of John about Jesus washing Simon Peter's feet at the Last Supper, [6] similarly uses the Greek term λούειν, louein, [7] which is the word typically used of washing in an Asclepeion, [4] rather than the more ordinary Greek word νίπτειν, niptein, used elsewhere in the Johannine text to describe ...
