Stifling Joy!

does it make sense for it to mean "don't dwell on it" or
"don't think about it at all."

Matthew 5:27-28
Quote:27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

That seems pretty clear. If you lust after someone, it's bad. It doesn't mention frequency; the mere act is bad, so the better translation out of your two would be "don't think about it at all".

Now, it is true that it doesn't say "don't think about sex" as opposed to "don't look at people with lust", so it could be cool to mind-hump your wife all day long, but a single errant thought about any other woman is a sin, according to Jesus.
