In the Bible, adultery is a physical manifestation of the [[sin nature]], where any married person engages in 'unnatural' activity with anyone other than his/her spouse. The [[Torah]] forbids adultery most notably in the [[Ten Commandments]] - its punishment: death. | + | Insofar as [[Protestant]] and [[Catholic]] [[Scripture]] is concerned, [[adultery]] is a physical manifestation of the [[sin nature]]; its concept includes actions and thoughts like [[fornication]], [[lust]], or physical/emotional intimacy beyond what is "appropriate" for a married man or woman.
