( C) 11 For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, beguiled and completely deceived me, and using it as a weapon killed me. ( B) 10 And the very commandment which was intended to bring life, actually proved to bring death for me.
9 I was once alive without the Law but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died. For I would not have known about coveting if the Law had not said, “ You shall not covet.” ( A) 8 But sin, finding an opportunity through the commandment produced in me every kind of coveting and selfish desire. ħ What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, if it had not been for the Law, I would not have recognized sin. 6 But now we have been released from the Law and its penalty, having died to that by which we were held captive, so that we serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter. 5 When we were living in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were awakened by the Law, were at work in our body to bear fruit for death. But if her husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is not an adulteress if she marries another man.Ĥ Therefore, my fellow believers, you too died to the Law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. 3 Accordingly, she will be designated as an adulteress if she unites herself to another man while her husband is alive. 7 Or do you not know, brothers and sisters (for I am speaking to those who know the Law ), that the Law has jurisdiction over a person as long as he lives? 2 For the married woman is bound and remains bound by law to her husband while he lives but if her husband dies, she is released and exempt from the law concerning her husband.
