"The Greek word for 'fornication' (porneia) could include any sexual sin committed after the betrothal contract.
...In Biblical usage, 'fornication' can mean any sexual congress outside monogamous marriage. It thus includes not only premarital
sex, but also adultery, homosexual acts, incest, remarriage after un-Biblical divorce, and sexual acts with animals, all of
which are explicitly forbidden in the law as given through Moses (Leviticus 20:10-21). Christ expanded the prohibition against adultery to include even sexual lusting
(Matthew 5:28)." (Dr. Henry M. Morris)
In every form, fornication was sternly condemned by the Mosaic law among God's people, the Israelites (Lev. 21:9; 19:29; Deut. 22:20-11, 23-29; 23:18; Ex. 22:16).
Song of Solomon 2:7
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor
awaken love Until it pleases.
