The Old Testament prohibited making an image of human beings, and that would prohibit any pornography also. The term is not used in modern translations of the Bible, but the ESV references various forms of the terms "prostitution" 57 times, "adultery" 71 times, and "lust" 22 times. The penalty for adultery was death, typically strangulation of the woman alone or stoning of both participants, under the Old Testament. | The Old Testament prohibited making an image of human beings, and that would prohibit any pornography also.
