Job 31:1

"I have made. covenant with my eyes; how then could. gaze at. virgin?" Job cites his attitudes as well as his actions. Not only was he innocent of adultery; he was not even guilty of the lustful look (Matthew 5:28). Compare with Isaiah 33:5 and Genesis 39. Notice this high moral standard and the understanding that lust is wrong as well as the actual act. Do we take being moral this seriously? Do our eyes control us or do we control our eyes? Who is really in charge of our thoughts? (2 Corinthians 10:3-5). "Knowing that the look could lead to desire in the heart, which desire could lead to sinful action, Job had resolved that he would avoid the very source of potential sin" (Zuck p. 134).
