This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The law of the Spirit of life (ho nomos tou pneumatos tēs zōēs). The principle or authority exercised by the Holy Spirit which bestows life and which rests “in Christ Jesus.”
Made me free (ēleutherōsen me). First aorist active indicative of the old verb eleutheroō for which see note on Gal 5:1. Aleph B have se (thee) instead of me. It matters little. We are pardoned, we are free from the old law of sin and death (7:7-24), we are able by the help of the Holy Spirit to live the new life in Christ.
