emtv - Romans:7:1-6

emtv@Romans:7:1 @ Or do you not know, brothers (for I speak to those knowing the law), that the law has jurisdiction over a man as long as he lives?

emtv@Romans:7:2 @ For the woman who is under a man has been bound by law to the living husband. But if the husband should die, she is released from the law of the husband.

emtv@Romans:7:3 @ So then, while the husband is living, she will be called an adulteress if she becomes [married] to a different husband; but if her husband should die, she is free from the law, so that she is not an adulteress, having become [married] to a different husband.

emtv@Romans:7:4 @ Therefore, my brothers, you also were put to death to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another-to Him who was raised from the dead, so that we might bear fruit to God.

emtv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions aroused through the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death.

emtv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we were released from the law, having died in [that] to which we were held fast, so that we should serve as slaves in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
