Matthew 5:27
Compare all
25 aAgree with your adversary quickly, bwhile you are on the way with him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.  
26 Assuredly, I say to you, you will by no means get out of there till you have paid the last penny.

Adultery in the Heart

27 “You have heard that it was said1 to those of old, a‘You shall not commit adultery.’  
28 But I say to you that whoever alooks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.  
29 aIf your right eye causes you to1 sin, bpluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.  
30 And if your right hand causes you to1 sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

Articles, Bible studies, and sermons that contain Matthew 5:27:

Matthew 5:27-28

There is no place that He did this in more succinct, poignant fashion that He did in the Sermon on the Mount. We are going to go back there (to Matthew 5); and we are just going to look quickly at examples of how He magnified the law. He brought it to a much fuller understanding. (This hardly needs any explanation.)

This is a magnification by giving the law's intent. The intent of the law is to stop lawbreaking in the mind before it ever breaks out into a lust.
