Adultry/Divorce Scripture

Verse 1:
Thou shall not commit adultery.
Exodus 20:14 King James Version

Verse 2:
But a man who commits adultery lacks judgment; whoever does so destroys himself.
Proverbs 6:32 New International Version

Verse 3:
And a certain ruler questioned Him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. You know the commandments, 'Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.'"
Luke 18:18-20 New American Standard

Verse: 4
"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery. 'But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.
Matthew 5:27-32 New International Version

Verse 5:
Divorce
"It has been said, 'Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce. '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.
Matthew 5:31 New International Version

Footnote:
a. Deuteronomy 24:1
