Reading it I couldn't help but see Jesus as something of a troll. Like in this passage:
JESUS went unto the mount of Olives.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
And the scribes and Pharisees brought in a woman caught committing adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
They say unto him, Master, this woman was caught committing adultery, in the very act.
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
This they said, to test him, that they might have cause to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him be the first to cast a stone at her.
And again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
And they which heard it, began going out one by one, beginning at the eldest: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
When Jesus had lifted up himself, he said unto her, Woman, whither are they gone? hath no man condemned thee?
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
