'Adultery' in the Bible

"You have heard that it was said, 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.'

But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.

For out of the heart proceed wicked thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, impiety of speech.

And I tell you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except her unfaithfulness, and marries another woman, commits adultery."

"Which Commandments?" he asked. Jesus answered, "'Thou shalt not kill;' 'Thou shalt not commit adultery;' 'Thou shalt not steal;' 'Thou shalt not lie in giving evidence;'

He replied, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman, commits adultery against the first wife;

and if a woman puts away her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery."

You know the Commandments--'Do not murder;' 'Do not commit adultery;' 'Do not steal;' 'Do not lie in giving evidence;' 'Do not defraud;' 'Honour thy father and thy mother.'"

Every man who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and he who marries her when so divorced from her husband commits adultery.

You know the Commandments: 'Do not commit adultery;' 'Do not murder;' 'Do not steal;' 'Do not lie in giving evidence;' 'Honour thy father and thy mother.'"

"Rabbi," they said, "this woman has been found in the very act of committing adultery.

You who forbid adultery, do you commit adultery? You who loathe idols, do you plunder their temples?

For the precepts, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," "Thou shalt do no murder," "Thou shalt not steal," "Thou shalt not covet," and all other precepts, are summed up in this one command, "Thou shalt love thy fellow man as much as thou lovest thyself."

For He who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not commit murder," and if you are a murderer, although not an adulterer, you have become an offender against the Law.

Their very eyes are full of adultery--being eyes which never cease from sin. These men set traps to catch unstedfast souls, their own hearts being well trained in greed. They are fore-doomed to God's curse!

I tell you that I am about to cast her upon a bed of sickness, and I will severely afflict those who commit adultery with her, unless they repent of conduct such as hers.
