but death reigned from Adam till Moses even over those that sinned not after the similitude Adam's transgression, who is a type of him that was to come;

knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more; death has no longer a lordship over him.

For sin shall not have a Lordship over you; for you are not under the law but under the grace.

ARE you ignorant, brothers, for I speak to them who understand law, that the law has authority over a man as long as he lives?

whose are the fathers, and of whom is Christ, according to the flesh. He who is over all is God blessed forever, amen.

For this end Christ died and lived again, that he might exercise lordship over the dead and living.
