Thanks for the list Dave...I'll be checking it out. His omissions of the geneologies is understandable, and certainly does not mean that they were not part of his source text/texts. I'll look into the others you showed.
As to the adulterous woman account...this is placed in numerous places in various Manuscripts...it floats around, as if no one is certain where it belonged in the Gospel texts.
I am leaning to the conculsion in what is said about it by a very early witness to is orgins, that is was transfered from "The Gospel of the Hebrews" which is no longer extant. But saying that does not mean that the account never happend. It may have, just as written, but recorded in that early writting that was not included as a whole with the rest of the books which later became the cannon of the Western Church.
