'Transgression' in the Bible
For the Law results in [God’s] wrath [against sin], but where there is no law, there is no violation [of it either].
So I say, have they stumbled so as to fall [to spiritual ruin]? Certainly not! But by their transgression [their rejection of the Messiah] salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make Israel jealous [when they realize what they have forfeited].
Now if Israel’s transgression means riches for the world [at large] and their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their fulfillment and reinstatement be!
and it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who was led astray and fell into sin.
but he was rebuked for his own transgression: a mute donkey spoke with a man’s voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.
Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness [ignoring God’s law by action or neglect or by tolerating wrongdoing—being unrestrained by His commands and His will].
