Roma 7:2-4

7:2 For a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives, but if her ⁸  husband dies, she is released from the law of the marriage. ⁹  7:3 So then, ¹⁰  if she is joined to another man while her husband is alive, she will be called an adulteress. But if her ¹¹  husband dies, she is free from that law, and if she is joined to another man, she is not an adulteress. 7:4 So, my brothers and sisters, ¹²  you also died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you could be joined to another, to the one who was raised from the dead, to bear fruit to God. ¹³

[2:3]  ¹ tn Grk “do you think this,” referring to the clause in v. 3b.

[2:3]  ² tn Grk “O man, the one who judges.”

[2:3]  ³ tn Grk “and do them.” The other words are supplied to bring out the contrast implied in this clause.

[15:31]  ⁴ tn Verses 30-31 form one long sentence in the Greek but have been divided into two distinct sentences for clarity in English.

[6:7]  ⁵ sn Verse 7 forms something of a parenthetical comment in Paul’s argument.

[7:6]  ⁶ tn Grk “having died.” The participle ἀποθανόντες (apoqanonte") has been translated as a causal adverbial participle.

[7:6]  ⁷ tn Grk “in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.”

[7:2]  ⁸ tn Grk “the,” with the article used as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

[7:2]  ⁹ tn Grk “husband.”

[7:2]  sn Paul’s example of the married woman and the law of the marriage illustrates that death frees a person from obligation to the law. Thus, in spiritual terms, a person who has died to what controlled us (v. 6) has been released from the law to serve God in the new life produced by the Spirit.

[7:3]  ¹⁰ tn There is a double connective here that cannot be easily preserved in English: “consequently therefore,” emphasizing the conclusion of what he has been arguing.

[7:3]  ¹¹ tn Grk “the,” with the article used as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

[7:4]  ¹² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.

[7:4]  ¹³ tn Grk “that we might bear fruit to God.”

[3:21]  ¹⁴ tn Νυνὶ δέ (Nuni de, “But now”) could be understood as either (1) logical or (2) temporal in force, but most recent interpreters take it as temporal, referring to a new phase in salvation history.

[3:21]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “being witnessed by the law and the prophets,” a remark which is virtually parenthetical to Paul’s argument.

[6:22]  ¹⁶ tn The two aorist participles translated “freed” and “enslaved” are causal in force; their full force is something like “But now, since you have become freed from sin and since you have become enslaved to God….”

[6:22]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “fruit.”

[1:26]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “for their females exchanged the natural function for that which is contrary to nature.” The term χρῆσις (crhsi") has the force of “sexual relations” here (L&N 23.65).

[6:11]  ¹⁹ tc ‡ Some Alexandrian and Byzantine mss (Ì^94vid א* B C 81 365 1506 1739 1881 pc) have the infinitive “to be” (εἶναι, einai) following “yourselves”. The infinitive is lacking from some mss of the Alexandrian and Western texttypes (Ì^46vid A D*^,c F G 33^vid pc). The infinitive is found elsewhere in the majority of Byzantine mss, suggesting a scribal tendency toward clarification. The lack of infinitive best explains the rise of the other readings. The meaning of the passage is not significantly altered by inclusion or omission, but on internal grounds omission is more likely. NA²⁷ includes the infinitive in brackets, indicating doubt as to its authenticity.

[6:11]  ²⁰ tn Greek emphasizes the contrast between these two clauses more than can be easily expressed in English.

[15:24]  ²¹ tn Grk “and to be helped by you.” The passive construction was changed to an active one in the translation.
