Study Note
Jesus' radical internalization of the commandment against adultery — 'whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart' — extends the law's reach from act to desire. The phrase 'in his heart' (en te kardia autou) establishes desire as the locus of moral life, consistent with the Hebrew Bible's concern for the heart as the true source of action (Jeremiah 4:4; Deuteronomy 10:16). This should not be read as making all sexual attraction sinful but as targeting 'looking in order to lust' — the deliberate gaze of possession and objectification. The following sayings about hand and eye cutting (5:29-30) use vivid hyperbole to express how seriously sin at the desire-level must be addressed.
