Adam Clarke, on 1Cor 7:27

“Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.”

“Art thou bound unto a wife? - i.e. Married; for the marriage contract was considered in the light of a bond. Seek not to be loosed - Neither regret your circumstances, notwithstanding the present distress, nor seek on this account for a dissolution of the marriage contract. But if thou art under no matrimonial engagements, do not for the present enter into any.”
