Mateus 5:27 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 5:27

Ye have heard that it was said
These forms of speech, as well as what follows,

by them of old time,
have been explained, in ver. 21. The law here mentioned,

thou shalt not commit adultery,
is recorded in ( Exodus 20:14 ) and the meaning of our Lord is, not that the then present Jews had heard that such a law had been delivered "to the ancients", their fathers, at Mount Sinai; for that they could read in their Bibles: but they had received it by tradition, that the sense of it, which had been given to their ancestors, by the ancient doctors of the church, was, that this law is to be taken strictly, as it lies, and only regards the sin of uncleanness in married persons; or, what was strictly adultery, and that actual; so that it had no respect to fornication, or unchaste thoughts, words, or actions, but that single act only.

Mateus 5:27 In-Context

25 “Entre em acordo depressa com seu adversĂĄrio que pretende levĂĄ-lo ao tribunal. Faça isso enquanto ainda estiver com ele a caminho, pois, caso contrĂĄrio, ele poderĂĄ entregĂĄ-lo ao juiz, e o juiz ao guarda, e vocĂȘ poderĂĄ ser jogado na prisĂŁo.
26 Eu garanto que vocĂȘ nĂŁo sairĂĄ de lĂĄ enquanto nĂŁo pagar o Ășltimo centavo.
27 “VocĂȘs ouviram o que foi dito: ‘NĂŁo adulterarĂĄs’.
28 Mas eu digo: Qualquer que olhar para uma mulher e desejå-la, jå cometeu adultério com ela no seu coração.
29 Se o seu olho direito o fizer pecar, arranque-o e lance-o fora. É melhor perder uma parte do seu corpo do que ser todo ele lançado no inferno.
