This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
I had not known (οὐκ ἔγνων)
Rev., correctly, I did not know. See on Joh 2:24. The I refers to Paul himself. He speaks in the first person, declaring concerning himself what is meant to apply to every man placed under the Mosaic law, as respects his relation to that law, before and after the revolution in his inner life brought about through his connection with that law. His personal experience is not excluded, but represents the universal experience.
Lust (ἐπιθυμίαν)
Rev., coveting. See on Mar 4:19.
