Not true. Evangelicals believe that as well. After her first husband dies, then the adultery ends. And it’s not a “tradition”; it’s Biblical.

Can you give us some biblical evidence to support that???

From my 18 years in a Baptist parsonage, and four years in Seminary ... I do recall:

“Luke 16:18 - Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.”

“Romans 7:2-3 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

“So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.”

See the link at Post #54.

FWIW, few people you will ever meet have a truly Biblical viewpoint or understanding of how God regards marriage and what one’s options are to get any support from Him in a sexual union.

Most marital counselors will give you bad, unscriptural advice. This thread is full of it.
