So in the Bible adultery is specifically having sex with another (Hebrew) man's wife, not merely having sex outside marriage. Having sex with other women while married is allowed and sometimes even encouraged in the Bible. For example:

Deuteronomy 20:13-14

And when the Lord your God gives it into your hand, you shall put all its males to the sword, but the women and the little ones, the livestock, and everything else in the city, all its spoil, you shall take as plunder for yourselves. And you shall enjoy the spoil of your enemies, which the Lord your God has given you.

It's plausible Trump has had sex with other men's wives, though no specific example comes to mind.

I like to think they mean as slaves, but who really knows.

Moses, after coming down Mt Sinai with the 10 Commandments, which of course contains the very memorable "Thou shalt not murder" then immediately goes out and genocides the entire kingdom of Og.

If I remember correctly David did this, didn't he?

Enjoying the little ones, you mean? I'm not sure, though Trump has for sure.

I meant have sex with another ones wife.

Story says he sent her husband to the front line to die while he was borking her too

To be honest, I don't remember. I'm better at remembering the juicy and hilarious stuff, like God casting Greater Bear Summon and a bunch of children immediately pulling aggro.

I just checked. He had sex with his neighbors wife Bathsheba, impregnated her and arranged her husbands death.

And he is described in the Bible as "a man after God's own heart."

He was punished though. The Bible, especially the old testament is hard to understand.
