Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Cast him out of the city, and stoned him - They did not however wait for any sentence to be pronounced upon him; it seems they were determined to stone him first, and then prove, after it had been done, that it was done justly. For the manner of stoning among the Jews, see the note on Leviticus 24:23.
The witnesses laid down their clothes - To illustrate this whole transaction, see the observations at the end of this chapter.
