Romans 7:6 — Meaning and Application

Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, {even} to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. {motions: Gr. passions}

But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not {in} the oldness of the letter. {that being...: or, being dead to that}

What shall we say then? {Is} the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. {lust: or, concupiscence}

But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin {was} dead.
