This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
What then? (ti ouṅ). Another turn in the argument about the excess of grace.
Shall we sin? (hamartesōmeṅ). First aorist active deliberative subjunctive of hamartanō. “Shall we commit sin” (occasional acts of sin as opposed to the life of sin as raised by epimenōmen tēi hamartiāi in Rom 6:1)?
Because (hoti). The same reason as in Rom 6:1 and taken up from the very words in Rom 6:14. Surely, the objector says, we may take a night off now and then and sin a little bit “since we are under grace.”
