The basic idea is that Jesus is casually talking about someone he & his listener both know, but he's either blissfully ignorant of the fact that the woman's a psycho, or he's downplaying it too much for his listener's taste.

All comments are subject to approval before they are published, so they will not appear immediately. Comments should be civil, relevant, and substantive. Anonymous comments are not allowed and will be unceremoniously deleted. For more on my comments policy, please see this entry on my other blog.
AND A NEW RULE (per this post): comments critical of Trump's lying must include criticism of Biden's or Kamala's or some prominent leftie's lying on a one-for-one basis! Failure to be balanced means your comment will not be published.
