Summary "A Sermon: Thou shalt not commit Adultery" by Joseph Phillimore is a religious discourse likely written in the early 19th century. This book falls under the category of a sermon, aimed at addressing moral and spiritual issues related to adultery, an act that the author condemns as harmful to individuals and society. It focuses on the significance of adhering to God's commandments, particularly the commandment against adultery, emphasizing the ethical and spiritual ramifications of straying from these divine laws. In this sermon, Phillimore explores the origins and consequences of adultery, urging both individuals and society to recognize its destructive nature. He discusses the importance of marital vows and the sanctity of marriage as a divine institution designed to foster love, fidelity, and mutual support. The sermon includes vivid illustrations and reflections on why adultery is not just a personal failing but a breach of trust that can lead to widespread harm and spiritual disarray. Phillimore calls on parents to guide their children towards virtue and piety, emphasizing the role of upbringing in preventing the spread of such moral indiscretions. Ultimately, he seeks to warn listeners against the dangers of neglecting sacred commitments, advocating for a life of integrity in accordance with God's will.
