Adultery
GEN 39:12 She caught him by his cloak and said, "Come to bed with me!" But
he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house.
EXO 20:14 "You shall not commit adultery.
22:16 "If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and
sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife.
17 If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he must still pay
the bride-price for virgins.
LEV 18:20 "'Do not have sexual relations with your neighbor's wife and
defile yourself with her.
19:20 "'If a man sleeps with a woman who is a slave girl promised to
another man but who has not been ransomed or given her freedom, there must
be due punishment. Yet they are not to be put to death, because she had not
been freed.
29 "'Do not degrade your daughter by making her a prostitute, or the land
will turn to prostitution and be filled with wickedness.
20:10 "'If a man commits adultery with another man's wife--with the wife
of his neighbor--both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to
death.
11 "'If a man sleeps with his father's wife, he has dishonored his father.
Both the man and the woman must be put to death; their blood will be on
their own heads.
12 "'If a man sleeps with his daughter-in-law, both of them must be put to
death. What they have done is a perversion; their blood will be on their
own heads.
DEU 5:18 "You shall not commit adultery.
22:13 If a man takes a wife and, after lying with her, dislikes her
14 and slanders her and gives her a bad name, saying, "I married this
woman, but when I approached her, I did not find proof of her virginity,"
15 then the girl's father and mother shall bring proof that she was a
virgin to the town elders at the gate.
16 The girl's father will say to the elders, "I gave my daughter in
marriage to this man, but he dislikes her.
17 Now he has slandered her and said, 'I did not find your daughter to be
a virgin.' But here is the proof of my daughter's virginity." Then her
parents shall display the cloth before the elders of the town,
18 and the elders shall take the man and punish him.
19 They shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give them to the
girl's father, because this man has given an Israelite virgin a bad name.
She shall continue to be his wife; he must not divorce her as long as he
lives.
20 If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the girl's virginity
can be found,
21 she shall be brought to the door of her father's house and there the
men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done a disgraceful thing
in
purge the evil from among you.
22 If a man is found sleeping with another man's wife, both the man who
slept with her and the woman must die. You must purge the evil from
23 If a man happens to meet in a town a virgin pledged to be married and
he sleeps with her,
24 you shall take both of them to the gate of that town and stone them to
death--the girl because she was in a town and did not scream for help, and
the man because he violated another man's wife. You must purge the evil
from among you.
25 But if out in the country a man happens to meet a girl pledged to be
married and rapes her, only the man who has done this shall die.
26 Do nothing to the girl; she has committed no sin deserving death. This
case is like that of someone who attacks and murders his neighbor,
27 for the man found the girl out in the country, and though the betrothed
girl screamed, there was no one to rescue her.
28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and
rapes her and they are discovered,
29 he shall pay the girl's father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry
the girl, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he
lives.
23:17 No Israelite man or woman is to become a shrine prostitute.
27:20 "Cursed is the man who sleeps with his father's wife, for he
dishonors his father's bed." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
22 "Cursed is the man who sleeps with his sister, the daughter of his
father or the daughter of his mother." Then all the people shall say,
"Amen!"
23 "Cursed is the man who sleeps with his mother-in-law." Then all the
people shall say, "Amen!"
PRO 2:16 It will save you also from the adulteress, from the wayward wife
with her seductive words,
17 who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made
before God.
18 For her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the
dead.
19 None who go to her return or attain the paths of life.
5:3 For the lips of an adulteress drip honey, and her speech is smoother
than oil;
4 but in the end she is bitter as gall, sharp as a double-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave.
6 She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths are crooked, but she
knows it not.
7 Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say.
8 Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house,
9 lest you give your best strength to others and your years to one who is
cruel,
20 Why be captivated, my son, by an adulteress? Why embrace the bosom of
another man's wife?
21 For a man's ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all his
paths.
22 The evil deeds of a wicked man ensnare him; the cords of his sin hold
him fast.
6:24 keeping you from the immoral woman, from the smooth tongue of the
wayward wife.
25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you
with her eyes,
26 for the prostitute reduces you to a loaf of bread, and the adulteress
preys upon your very life.
27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned?
28 Can a man walk on hot coals without his feet being scorched?
29 So is he who sleeps with another man's wife; no one who touches her
will go unpunished.
32 But a man who commits adultery lacks judgment; whoever does so destroys
himself.
HOS 1:2 When the LORD began to speak through Hosea, the LORD said to him,
"Go, take to yourself an adulterous wife and children of unfaithfulness,
because the land is guilty of the vilest adultery in departing from the
LORD."
MAT 5:27 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.'
28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already
committed adultery with her in his heart.
32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital
unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries
the divorced woman commits adultery.
15:19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual
immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.
19:9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital
unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery."
18 "Which ones?" the man inquired. Jesus replied, "'Do not murder, do not
commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony,
MAR 7:21 For from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual
immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
10:11 He answered, "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman
commits adultery against her.
12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits
adultery."
19 You know the commandments: 'Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do
not steal, do not give false testimony, do not defraud, honor your father
and mother.'"
LUK 16:18 "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits
adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
18:20 You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery, do not murder,
do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.'"
JOH 8:4 and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of
adultery.
5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?"
6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for
accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with
his finger.
7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them,
"If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at
her."
8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones
first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there.
10 Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one
condemned you?"
11 "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus
declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."
ROM 7:3 So then, if she marries another man while her husband is still
alive, she is called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is
released from that law and is not an adulteress, even though she marries
another man.
13:9 The commandments, "Do not commit adultery," "Do not murder," "Do not
steal," "Do not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are
summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
1CO 5:11 But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone
who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater
or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.
6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the
Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor
adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers
will inherit the
13 "Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"--but God will destroy
them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord,
and the Lord for the body.
15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I
then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never!
16 Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one
with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh."
18 Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside
his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.
GAL 5:19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality,
impurity and debauchery;
21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did
before, that those who live like this will not inherit the
EPH 5:3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality,
or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for
God's holy people.
5 For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person--such a
man is an idolater--has any inheritance in the
God.
HEB 13:4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept
pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
