It actually does not say that you have committed 'adultery'; but states that you commit it -- 'in your heart'.

Anyway it's in Matthew 5:28

What is the Bible's view on adultery?

The Bible says adultry is a sin. It is wrong, against the ten commandments and the root of at least one story. Are you trying to find out more specific, like is it forgivable or why it is wrong? Ten Commandments - Exodus 20:14 Mathew 5:27 Luke 16:18 John 8:1-11 Ten Commandments "Thou shalt not commit Adultery" See these verses out of the King James Version EXODUS 20:14 "Thou shalt not commit adultery" DEUTERONOMY 5:18 "Neither shalt thou commit adultery" LUKE 18:20 "Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery" JAMES 2:11 "For he that said, Do no commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law If you can read, you should look and see for yourself. People who rely on other people's understandings of the Bible will never get to hear God speak to them in their spirit. One of the commandments from the Law of Moses is that you shall not commet adultery. It is an act of selfishness. It is not born of love. The Bible says that in order to please God, we must love one another as we love ourselves, and love the Lord God with all our hearts. If we do that, than we have kept all of the commandments. If I love you, I will not steal your wife. See? The Bible says that we are incapable of loving one another because we are sinners. We must die to our old nature and believe on Jesus Christ, who gave himself as a once and for all sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sinful nature. This does not make one sin-less, but it forgives all past present and future sins. After we have believed on Him, he then fuses His Holy Spirit with us, making it possible to love one another. We then, through time and trials, become more and more like Jesus everday. it is not our own struggle, trying to be like Jesus---it is just being your self., but yourself is now strengthened by the Holy Spirit. It is purely supernatural. That is why it works. It isn't a philosophy, a method, or even a relgion. It is completely supernatural. And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death. Leviticus 20:10. And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.John 8:3-8

What is an adulterer The Bible?

Several scriptures directly indicate that audultry is wrong. The one I think of first is Matthew 5:27,28. These are Jesus' own words. Here he quotes one the ten commandments and then builds on the commandment to "not commit adultery."Exo 20:14 MKJV You shall not commit adultery.Lev 20:10 MKJV And a man who commits adultery with a man's wife, who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.Mat 5:27-28 MKJV You have heard that it was said to the ancients, "You shall not commit adultery." (v.28) But I say to you that whoever looks on a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
