To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am.

Because of the impending crisis I think it best for you to remain as you are.The one bound to a wife should not seek divorce. The one released from a wife should not seek marriage.

But the man who is firm in his commitment, and is under no necessity but has control over his will, and has decided in his own mind to keep his own virgin, does well.So then, the one who marries his own virgin does well, but the one who does not, does better.

Then in the dream God replied to him,“ Yes, I know that you have done this with a clear conscience. That is why I have kept you from sinning against me and why I did not allow you to touch her.

The disciples said to him,“ If this is the case of a husband with a wife, it is better not to marry!”He said to them,“ Not everyone can accept this statement, except those to whom it has been given.

Take note of the field where the men are harvesting and follow behind with the female workers. I will tell the men to leave you alone. When you are thirsty, you may go to the water jars and drink some of the water the servants draw.”

So it is with the one who has sex with his neighbor’s wife; no one who touches her will escape punishment.
