What does the Bible say about whether a married man can commit adultery with an unmarried woman?
Jeremiah 5:7: "How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots houses."
Revelation 2:20-22: "Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds."
Mark 10:11: "And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her."
Adultery is only possible if a married woman is involved. It is impossible for an unmarried woman to commit adultery.
Adultery:
Married man + married woman (not his)
Unmarried man + married woman
Not adultery:
Married man + unmarried woman
Unmarried man + unmarried woman
