Fornication is any unlawful relationship between non married couples...
From one night stand to the live together.
For example Paul said at Corinthians that the man who had his father's wife was Fornication.
In such situation ge us obligated to put aside his "wife" couse is not marriage and neither can be one.
So how he called? Fornication!
Now Jesus time adultery was not the exception which the Pharisees asked him for!
Adultery was planished to death and a woman who's hausband is dead is free to remarry.
Adultery was not tge exception Jesus spoke.
An other example of Fornication was if the married man found her wife not virgin. Which means (according to the law) she had fornicate before the marriage.
In this situation and only in such situation he could put her aside and then marriy an other because marriage was not valid.
Do you remember Joseph? He wanted to put away Mary

for that reason.. because he was a just Man!!!
And according to the law she commited fornication and he could stone her or just leave her.
Now ok. Seems reasonable to give an exception but, if a marriage is broken after one commits adultery (which you call Fornication) then there is not any obligation. Because there is no any law for marriage.
Who takes a divorce and do not remarry an other?
Or who divorces hus wife and don't have a girlfriend?
So any divorced couple can remarry....
Plus the woman is obligated to her husband till he is DEAD....
Do you know any woman wants to marry an other while she lives with her first husband?

I don't know any.
Then Paul us speaking for the divorced woman that wants an other hausband.
That's why apostles said to Jesus that if us such obligation to the marriage then better to never marry!!!
I know you have a theology, but i just want to consider those things. Adultery is a sin which is many times referred distinctly from Fornication and us one if the works of the flesh that the man or woman who lives in this sin will loose their salvation!!! Think about.
(And don't tell me its so harsh 😂 for the Lord himself said that the way to salvation is narrow wnd few Will make it)
Ok brother 👍
