Bible Note: Vintage, Step it backwards: Death reigned from Adam to Moses. Romans 5:14 Sin is in the world but not counted where there is no law. Romans 5:13 There was death because there was sin. Romans 5:12 We also know that the wages of sin is death. Romans 6:23 So, If there was no law, there was no sin, so there should be no death. Since there was Law, there was sin thus there was death. “His inference hence is, Therefore there was a law; for sin is not imputed where there is no law.” – Matthew Henry Stand in His grace, WOS |
