Exegesis
The aorist passive katelēiphthē {κατελείφθη | ka-te-leí-phthē} introduces the resulting scene: monos ho Iēsous {μόνος ὁ Ἰησοῦς | mó-nos ho Iē-soûs} ‘Jesus alone’ contrasts sharply with the earlier crowd, while kai hē gynē en mesō ousa {καὶ ἡ γυνὴ ἐν μέσῳ οὖσα | kaí hē gynḗ en mé-sō oû-sa} uses a present participle to keep her presence “in the midst” vivid and continuous. The English renderings mirror this flow by using temporal and causal phrasing (“when they had heard,” “being convicted”) and by preserving the climactic contrast between the many who leave and the final focus on Jesus and the woman.
In context — John 8:9
But when they had heard, and being convicted by the conscience , they began to go out one by one, starting from the elders, and Jesus was left alone, and the woman was standing in the midst.
