IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT. There is another commandment that covers that:
TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.' So what does adultery
mean? Let's look in the dictionary:
Adulterate - debase, make impure by adding a foreign substance.
Have you heard the phrase "pure, unadulterated"?
There you have it. Race mixing is outlawed in the Ten Commadments, but
even the Ten Commandments have been twisted in the zionist cultural
cesspool we have been born into..

Apparently the word was mistranslated into Hebrew from the original
English. Don't you hate it when that happens?
FWIW, the Oxford _Jewish Study Bible_ says
In the Bible this refers to voluntary sexual relations between a
married or engaged woman and a man other than her husband. It did
not refer to the extramarital relations of a married man (in
polygamous societies a wife might share her husband with other
wives and did not have an exclusive right to him).

My favorite biblical commandment isn't one of the Ten...it's Deuteronomy 19:14:
"thou shalt not pull up survey stakes"....r

In an era in which land grants were typically stated in terms of
boundary markers, I can certainly see that moving them to increase
your holdings (and decrease your neighbor's) would be seen as a pretty
severe crime. It's a clear form of theft. The _Jewish Study Bible_
says that
the sacrosanct status of a _landmark_ (lit. "boundary marker") was
a legal tradition in the ancient Near East.
This verse is part of the "Law Code", evidently inserted into
Deuteronomy. The same idea shows up later in the book, written by the
Deuteronomist:
Cursed be he who moves his fellow countryman's landmark [27:17]
(The JSB has a note here that this "cursed" is a different Hebrew word
than the one used to imply divine punishment. This just one indicates
that the actions are stigmatized.)
It's interesting that in this particular set of prohibited actions,
which include bestiality (27:21) and incest (27:20, 22-23), there's no
explicit mention of homosexuality. Only the author of the "Holiness
Code" inserted in the middle of Leviticus (17-26) actually seems to
have thought that it was worth mentioning.

As a former head chainman and rod man on a survey party, I totally agree.
Replacing pulled up survey stakes is a pain.

I believe I read that one of the original English translations ( Harry
the 8th Great Bible perhaps) left out the "not" but unfortunately it was
caught before the book was released.

It still is at least in Canada. I think it rates a maximum of 5 to 10
years in prison here.

Never mind the bestiality and incest, moving a survey stake is a serious
crime.

The so-called "Wicked Bible" of 1631. Apparently copies (anywhere
from five to twelve, according to various sources) still exist.
