OT.filter - rwp transgress:

rwp@Romans:4:15 @{Worketh wrath} (\orgn katergazetai\). Because of disobedience to it. {Neither is there transgression} (\oude parabasis\). There is no responsibility for the violation of a non-existent law.

rwp@Romans:5:14 @{Even over them that had not sinned after the likeness of Adam's transgression} (\kai epi tous m hamartsantas epi ti homoimati ts parabases Adam\). Adam violated an express command of God and Moses gave the law of God clearly. And yet sin and death followed all from Adam on till Moses, showing clearly that the sin of Adam brought terrible consequences upon the race. Death has come upon infants and idiots also as a result of sin, but one understands Paul to mean that they are not held responsible by the law of conscience. {A figure} (\tupos\). See on ¯Acts:7:43; strkjv@1Thessalonians:1:7; strkjv@2Thessalonians:3:9; strkjv@1Corinthians:10:6| for this word. Adam is a type of Christ in holding a relation to those affected by the headship in each case, but the parallel is not precise as Paul shows.

rwp@Romans:5:16 @{Through one that sinned} (\di' henos hamartsantos\). "Through one having sinned." That is Adam. Another contrast, difference in source (\ek\). {Of one} (\ex henos\). Supply \paraptmatos\, Adam's one transgression. {Of many trespasses} (\ek polln paraptmatn\). The gift by Christ grew out of manifold sins by Adam's progeny. {Justification} (\dikaima\). Act of righteousness, result, ordinance (1:32; strkjv@2:26; strkjv@8:4|), righteous deed (5:18|), verdict as here (acquittal).

rwp@Romans:5:17 @{Much more} (\polli mallon\). Argument _a fortiori_ again. Condition of first class assumed to be true. Note balanced words in the contrast (transgression \paraptmati\, grace \charitos\; death \thanatos\, life \zi\; the one or {Adam} \tou henos\, the one {Jesus Christ}; reign \basileu\ in both).
