Adultery » Adulterers and adulteresses
He that breaketh wedlock with another man's wife shall die for it, because he hath broke wedlock with his neighbour's wife, and so shall she likewise.
If a man be found lying with a woman that hath a wedded husband, they shall die: both the man that lie with the wife, and also the wife. So shalt thou put away evil from Israel.
that they may keep thee from the evil woman, and from the flattering tongue of the harlot: that thou lust not after her beauty in thine heart, and lest thou be taken with her fair looks. A harlot will make a man to beg his bread, but a married woman will hunt for the precious life. read more.
May a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burnt? Or can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be hurt? Even so, whosoever goeth in to his neighbour's wife, and toucheth her, can not be unguilty. Men do not utterly despise a thief, that stealeth to satisfy his soul, when he is hungry: But if he may be gotten, he restoreth again seven times as much, or else he maketh recompense with all the goods of his house. But whoso committeth adultery with a woman, he is a fool: and destroyeth his own soul. He getteth himself also shame and dishonour, such as shall never be put out. For the jealousy and wrath of the man will not be intreated;

There be three things too high for me, and as for the fourth, it passeth my knowledge. The way of an Eagle in the air, the way of a serpent over a stone, the way of a ship in the sea, and the way of a man with a young woman. Such is the way also of a wife that breaketh wedlock, which wipeth her mouth like as when she hath eaten, and sayeth, "As for me, I have done no harm."
And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery, and set her in the midst and said unto him, "Master, this woman was taken in adultery, even as the deed was a doing. Moses in the law commanded us that such should be stoned: What sayest thou therefore?"
Let wedlock be had in price in all points, and let the chamber be undefiled: for whore keepers and adulterers God will judge.

Which of them tell me, will love him most?" Simon answered, and said, "I suppose that he to whom he forgave most." And he said unto him, "Thou hast truly judged." And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, "Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, and thou gavest me no water to my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. Thou gavest me no kiss: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet. Mine head with oil thou didst not anoint: but she hath anointed my feet with ointment. Wherefore I say unto thee, Many sins are forgiven her, for she loved much. To whom less is forgiven, the same doeth less love." And he said unto her, "Thy sins are forgiven thee."

Judges » Not judging others
Judge not, that ye be not judged. For as ye judge, so shall ye be judged: and with what measure ye mete, with the same shall it be measured to you again. Why seest thou a mote in thy brother's eye, and perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? read more.

"Judge not and ye shall not be judged. Condemn not: and ye shall not be condemned. Forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.

For with what measure ye mete, with the same shall men mete to you again." And he put forth a similitude unto them, "Can the blind lead the blind? Do they not both then fall into the ditch? read more.
The disciple is not above his master. Every man shall be perfect, even as his master is. Why seest thou a mote in thy brother's eye, and considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

But why doest thou then judge thy brother? Other why dost thou despise thy brother? We shall all be brought before the judgment seat of Christ.
