Definition: The word "adultery" in the King James Version (KJV) is translated as "unmarried." It is a term used to describe behaviors or practices that lead to a divorce, infidelity, or lack thereof between two individuals who are not married. In the New Testament, this word is often associated with adultery by Christians and Jews. The phrase comes from a verse in Romans 7:15-20 which states, "For the man who is sexually aroused does not obtain for himself what belongs to another, but becomes like that other; and he acts like one who makes himself subject to his own will. For as the body is one flesh, so is Christ. Therefore He is God in us, speaking through us, even as we speak through Him." Here, "adultery" refers to an act of sexual intimacy between two individuals who are not married and, therefore, violate the spiritual law. The KJV's translation of this word means that the person involved in adultery is considered sexually divorced or unfaithful.
