In the text
Romans 2:23Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?Romans 4:15Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.Romans 5:14Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.Galatians 3:19Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.1 Timothy 2:14And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.Hebrews 2:2For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;Hebrews 9:15And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
