Or do you not know, ^(C1)brothers and sisters (for I am speaking to those who know the ^(F1)Law), that the ^(F1)Law has jurisdiction over a person as long as he lives?

For ^(C1)the married woman is bound by law to her ^(F1)husband as long as he is alive; but if her husband dies, she is released from the law ^(F2)concerning the husband.

So then, if while her husband is alive she ^(F1)gives herself to another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is not an adulteress if she ^(F2)gives herself to another man.
