As noted elsewhere, reading and writing were taught separately in those days. While it is clear the Jesus character could read, there is absolutely nothing in scripture to indicate he could write.
In fact, the ability to write was the more rare of the 2 skills, and if Jesus could write he would have been a scribe, not a carpenter.
So, except for some fundies and evangelicals who will maintain Jesus could 'do anything', the reality is he could not write, and there is ZERO basis for asserting He could.
Period.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
