Re: Jesus illiterate?

Was Jesus illiterate?  Anthony Smith, president of Magdalen College, Oxford, writes: "See the Gospel of St. John, Chapter 8, 1-11. Twice it says that Jesus knelt and wrote in the sand, in the presence of the woman taken in
adultery, "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone". You need to be quite good at the art of writing to be able to write legibly in sand.  It suggests that Jesus was far from illiterate".
