For what

wherefore by works of law shall no flesh be declared righteous before Him, for through law is a knowledge of sin.

for when we were in the flesh, the passions of the sins, that are through the law, were working in our members, to bear fruit to the death;

and from all things from which ye were not able in the law of Moses to be declared righteous, in this one every one who is believing is declared righteous;

the law, then, is against the promises of God? -- let it not be! for if a law was given that was able to make alive, truly by law there would have been the righteousness,

for a disannulling indeed doth come of the command going before because of its weakness, and unprofitableness,

For the law having a shadow of the coming good things -- not the very image of the matters, every year, by the same sacrifices that they offer continually, is never able to make perfect those coming near,

For sin

for him who did not know sin, in our behalf He did make sin, that we may become the righteousness of God in him.

Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, 'Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,'

Condemned

this knowing, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;

who our sins himself did bear in his body, upon the tree, that to the sins having died, to the righteousness we may live; by whose stripes ye were healed,

Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,
