This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
For without the law - that is, before its extensive demands and prohibitions come to operate upon our corrupt nature.
sin was - rather, “is”
dead - that is, the sinful principle of our nature lies so dormant, so torpid, that its virulence and power are unknown, and to our feeling it is as good as “dead.”
