The Seventh CommandmentMonday 16th November 2020
The seventh commandment forbids adultery - this includes any thought, word, or action which encourages sexual activity outside of the marriage between one man and one woman.
Exodus 20:14
14 “You shall not commit adultery.
(ESV)
Proverbs 7:4–9
4 Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”
and call insight your intimate friend,
5 to keep you from the forbidden1 woman,
from the adulteress2 with her smooth words.
6 For at the window of my house
I have looked out through my lattice,
7 and I have seen among the simple,
I have perceived among the youths,
a young man lacking sense,
8 passing along the street near her corner,
taking the road to her house
9 in the twilight, in the evening,
at the time of night and darkness.(ESV)
