That's exactly what is happening. They are SUPPOSED to be her husbands, which is why Christ said you have had 5 husbands, but in reality they are not because they are all alive at the same time, therefore Christ said "the one you are now with is not your husband." Because the one she is now with was JUST LIKE all the others: adulterous relationships.They can't be her husbands and at the same time not her husbands.
She said that she HAD HAD five Husbands and Jesus said she was telling the truth.
What you need to do is look at the OT legal law about Divorcement. The one that Moses allowed. The one that Jesus said was allowed because of the men's hardness of heart.
There is nowhere that the Bible says that sex is marriage. Would you say that someone is not married to a paralyzed person unable to have sex or two older widowers are not really married because they no longer desire to have sex, but married for companionship? They are not married in God's eyes?
But there would have been NO adultery if they were just companions! Oh my goodness. Sometimes its the simpler things in life that are the most difficult, I guess.
