Rom 14:7. Ἡμῶν, of us) believers; for all others live and die to themselves.-ἑαυτῷ, to himself) Wellerus says: No man ought to live to himself, neither formally [formaliter], so that, as one at his own disposal, he should regulate his life according to his own desires; nor materially [materialiter], because, satisfied with himself, he may wish to give way to self-indulgence; nor [finaliter] with this end in view, that he may make the scope of his life the enjoyment of pleasures.-ζῇ, ἀποθνήσκει, lives, dies) the art of dying is the same as that of living.
