Romans 7:2 in Context — Romans 7
1 Ignorez-vous, frères, car je parle à des gens qui connaissent la loi, que la loi exerce son pouvoir sur l’homme aussi longtemps qu’il vit?
2 Ainsi, une femme mariée est liée par la loi à son mari tant qu’il est vivant; mais si le mari meurt, elle est dégagée de la loi qui la liait à son mari.
3 Si donc, du vivant de son mari, elle devient la femme d’un autre homme, elle sera appelée adultère; mais si le mari meurt, elle est affranchie de la loi, de sorte qu’elle n’est point adultère en devenant la femme d’un autre.
4 De même, mes frères, vous aussi vous avez été, par le corps de Christ, mis à mort en ce qui concerne la loi, pour que vous apparteniez à un autre, à celui qui est ressuscité des morts, afin que nous portions des fruits pour Dieu.
