who are Israelites; whom God adopted as sons, whose was the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the service of the sanctuary, and the promises;

For as many as have sinned without a law, will also perish without a law; and as many as have sinned under a law, will be judged by a law,

but I perceive another law in my members warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
