THE LAWS OF GOD - #7 (A)

The Seventh Commandment and Related Scriptures

God has set forth HIS Laws in the Holy Scriptures for ALL Mankind to know--and obey (Proverbs 14:34 and Isaiah 60:12)!

7. THOU (you) SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY!

(Exodus 20:14 - Deuteronomy 5:18)...
The Pagans of the wicked world seek a libertine view of marriage and family, holding that infidelity and unfaithfullness is old fashioned and that modern open marraige and swinging ought to be the norm! On the other extreme, some of the Religious Establishment would have such a strict view of marriage and family as to do away with it entirely (and require eveyone to be celibate)! But, the Hebrew view is to have a balanced, healthy, and wholesome attitude that is pro-Family and pro-marriage (fidelity and faithfulness). Thus, as Family is the Foundation of the Realm (Nation), and fidelity the Foundation of the Family, to commit adultery and defile the wife (breaking her one flesh with her husband) is one of the most heinous crimes to be committed!

.A SPECIFIC ADULTERY (Cuckoldry):

The wicked of the world have many ways of defining Adultery (open marriage, swinging, etc.)--and attempting to justify that infidelity and unfaithfulness is okay. However, the Holy Scriptures set forth God's definitions and point out what a great error (and Major Sin) such an act is!

..1 DEFINITIONS OF ADULTERY:
The Holy Scriptures set forth 3 basic definitions of what the word adultery means:

..2 REASONS WHY GOD HAS FORBIDDEN SPECIFIC ADULTERY:
Adultery, or wife defilement, is taboo for good reasons. It is not just a silly whim of God. Rather, there are some very good reasons why we need to keep and obey this Commandment:

CONSEQUENTLY, is it any wonder that WE preach so sternly against IT in Our teachings? And act so strongly against it in Our Law? For, it is a Major Sin in God's eyes!

.B GENERAL ADULTERY

PERVERSIONS (Sex Crimes)--Mosaic Taboos: The other major definition of Adultery is basically taboos or perversions that we are not to practice. Moses had a list of these specificaly preached against by his teachings. And, according to tradition, the NOAHIC RULES excluded those who practiced them, from Fellowship. But, to fully explain them, we have set them off in the following section.
