Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her.

Thou shalt not lie with thy neighbour's wife, nor be defiled with mingling of seed.

And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her.

'And unto the wife of thy fellow thou dost not give thy seed of copulation, for uncleanness with her.

And you may not have sex relations with your neighbour's wife, making yourself unclean with her.

You shall not have sexual intercourse with your neighbor's wife, nor shall you be defiled by the mingling of seed.

Uxori proximi tui non dabis concubitum tuum in semine, ut polluaris cum ea.

The object of this passage is the same as that of the foregoing ones. For, whilst all fornication pollutes a man, there is grosser impurity in adultery, because the sanctity of marriage is violated, and by the commingling of seed a spurious and illegitimate offspring is derived. Wherefore, God has justly enumerated this crime amongst the abominations of the Gentiles, as may be more clearly seen from the exordium of the chapter from whence this passage is taken.

Thy neighbor's wife - See Clarke's note on Exodus 20:14.

Moreover, thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife,.... Which is adultery, and a breach of the seventh command, Exodus 20:14,
to defile thyself with her; not only adultery is a defiling a man's wife, as it is sometimes called, but the adulterer defiles himself: all sin is of a defiling nature, but especially this, which defiles a man both in soul and body, and brings a blot and stain upon his character, which shall not be wiped off, Proverbs 6:32.

"To a neighbour's wife thou shalt not give שׁכבתּך thy pouring as seed" (i.e., make her pregnant), "to defile thyself with her," viz., by the emissio seminis (Leviticus 15:16-17), a defilement which was to be punished as adultery by the stoning to death of both parties (Leviticus 20:10; Deuteronomy 22:22, cf. John 9:5).
