'Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous' — the verse stands as one of the clearest New Testament affirmations of marriage as a divine institution deserving communal honor, likely against ascetic tendencies in the community addressed. The word 'undefiled' (amiantos) in Hebrews is reserved for things of the highest purity: Jesus's high priesthood (7:26) and true religion (James 1:27) — placing the sanctified marriage bed in the same category of inviolable purity. The threat of divine judgment on sexual immorality (pornous) and adultery (moichous) grounds the positive command in eschatological accountability rather than social convention alone. The verse has been central in Christian discussions of sexual ethics, particularly in contexts of ascetic deprecation of marriage and in modern debates about sexuality and covenant faithfulness.
