Correct. He sinned.

I don’t understand why sevenbak is so adamant about Abraham not sinning. Mormons defend the “right” of their Prophets Joseph Smith and Brigham Young to be sinful....don’t they?

Don’t we hear from them over, and over again that their Prophets are ‘only’ men and sometimes speak as men with fallen ideas and lusts? Aren’t we told that when Brigham Young spoke the Adam/God doctrine that he was just espousing erroneous beliefs.

So are Prophets fallible as men, or not? not? What say ye seven?

Yes, we keep saying that. Prophets are fallible as men.

I never said Abraham didn't sin. I said he didn't commit adultery. Jesus was the only person alive who was without sin, but God had never worked through his prophets when they disobeyed his commandments as blatantly as you accuse Abraham and the rest of doing. Righteousness is a prerequisite of obtaining the powers of heaven, it's always worked that way. Same goes for the Holy Ghost or comforter. One must at least be trying to live the commandments.

And yes, prophets are fallible as men, or course they are. No one is claiming otherwise.
