An heinous

Abimelech summoned Abraham and said to him, "What have you done to us? What sin did I commit against you that would cause you to bring such great guilt on me and my kingdom? You have done things to me that should not be done!"

Then Abimelech exclaimed, "What in the world have you done to us? One of the men might easily have had sexual relations with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us!"

There is no one greater in this household than I am. He has withheld nothing from me except you because you are his wife. So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?"

"You shall not commit adultery.

So it is with the one who has sex with his neighbor's wife; no one who touches her will escape punishment.

An iniquity

then this also would be iniquity to be judged, for I would have been false to God above.

After three months Judah was told, "Your daughter-in-law Tamar has turned to prostitution, and as a result she has become pregnant." Judah said, "Bring her out and let her be burned!"

If a man commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death.

If a man is caught having sexual relations with a married woman both the man who had relations with the woman and the woman herself must die; in this way you will purge evil from Israel.

I will punish you as an adulteress and murderer deserves. I will avenge your bloody deeds with furious rage.
