Context — The Role of the Law in Salvationgenerated
Romans 4:15 is situated in a discussion about the law's purpose in relation to faith and grace. Paul argues that the law cannot provide righteousness or inheritance; instead, it reveals sin and brings about God's wrath. This is a critical point in understanding the relationship between faith and the law, as he contrasts the law's function with the promise given to Abraham, which is fulfilled through faith, not adherence to the law.

The Key Word — νόμος, nomosgenerated
The Greek word νόμος (nomos) translates to 'law' and refers to a system of rules or regulations. In this context, it highlights the Mosaic law, which defines sin and transgression. The parsing shows that it is a singular masculine noun, indicating a specific law or set of laws.
In the New Testament, νόμος often appears in discussions about the law's role in salvation and moral conduct, as seen in Romans 3:27 and Galatians 6:2. Here, it serves to illustrate that the law's presence is what defines transgression and brings about the corresponding wrath.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations generally agree on the meaning of the verse, with slight variations in wording. The BSB uses brings for κατεργάζομαι, while the WEB opts for produces, and the FBV states results in.
Where they differ is in the rendering of νόμος and παράβασις. The BSB, KJV, and ASV consistently use the law, while the WEB uses disobedience instead of transgression.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of a main clause followed by two subordinate clauses. The main verb is κατεργάζεται, brings, which governs the subject νόμος and the object ὀργὴν.
The structure emphasizes the relationship between the law and transgression, with the absence of the law leading to the absence of transgression. This creates a logical flow that connects the law's function to the consequences of sin.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
νόμος corresponds to the Hebrew word תּוֹרָה (torah), meaning 'law' or 'instruction'. It is commonly used in the Septuagint to translate various laws and commandments given to the Israelites.
The concept of παράβασις also appears in the Septuagint, indicating a deviation from the law, which aligns with its usage in the New Testament to denote transgression.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Romans 4:15 explains that the law brings about God's wrath, and without the law, there is no violation of it. This highlights the law's role in defining sin and the consequences that follow.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
This means that the law reveals sin and establishes the consequences for disobedience, which is God's wrath.
Without a law to define what is right and wrong, there can be no violation or transgression of that law.
This verse emphasizes that righteousness comes through faith, not by adhering to the law, which can only reveal sin.
Understanding the law's role helps clarify the distinction between grace and works, highlighting that salvation is a gift through faith.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways do I see the law's role in my own life or community?
- How can understanding the law help me appreciate the grace offered through faith?
- What are some examples of how I might misinterpret the relationship between law and grace?
- How can I apply the lessons from this verse to my understanding of sin and righteousness?
The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Early church Fathers comment on the implications of this verse regarding the law and its relationship to sin and grace.
Paul says that the law brings wrath in order to underline his point, [made in the previous verse,] that it is not the pathway to the inheritance of the promise.The law which brings transgression cannot be the law of Moses,
Origen argues that the law cannot lead to the promise since it brings transgression.
Early Church Fathers on Romans 4 →Now if it worketh wrath, and renders them liable for transgression, it is plain that it makes them so to a curse also. But they that are liable under a curse, and punishments, and transgression, are not worthy of inheriting,
John Chrysostom emphasizes that the law's wrath makes it clear that it does not lead to inheritance.

Law necessarily subjects the transgressor to punishment; for where no law is - where no rule of duty is enacted and acknowledged, there is no transgression; and where there is no transgression there can be no punishment, for there is no law to enforce it.

The Greek word γάρ (gar) is a coordinating particle primarily used to introduce reasons or explanations, similar to 'for' in English. It can serve various functions, including causal, explicative, and conclusive, and is often placed after the first word in a clause. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts that clarify or justify preceding statements, aligning with its classical usage.
γάρ, a conjunction, which ace. to its composition, γέ and dpa (i. 4. ἄρ), is properly a particle of affirmation and conclusion, denoting truly therefore, verily as the case stands, “ the thing is first aflirmed by the particle yé, and then is referred to what precedes by the force of the particle dpa” (Klotz ad Devar. ii. 1, p. 232; οἵ. Kiihner ii. p. 724; [Jelf § 786; W. 445 (415) sq-]). Now since by a new affirmation not infrequently the reason and nature of something previously mentioned are set forth, it comes to pass that, by the use of this particle, either the reason and cause of a foregoing statement is added, whence arises the causal or argumentative force of the particle, for (Lat. nam, enim; Germ. denn) ; or some previous declaration is explained, whence γάρ takes on an ex plicative force: YP Sor, the fact is, namely (Lat. videlicet, Germ. ndmilich). Thus the force of the…

CONJ CONJunction or conjunctive particle
for (ki (conjunction), le, from 'el (preposition), and various other words. In the New Testament also the words are various, chiefly gar, kai gar, hoti (conjunctions); anti apo eis dia (accusative), epi (dative and accusative), peri (genitive), pros (genitive and accusative), huper (genitive) (prepositions)): the English Revised Version and the American Standard Revised Version give in many cases more literal or more accurate renderings than those in the King James Version.
In the New Testament the most important preps. from a doctrinal point of view are anti, "face to face," "over against," "instead," "on behalf of," peri, "around," "about," "concerning," huper, "over," "on behalf of." The first has been claimed as stating the substitutionary nature of Christ's sacrifice as contrasted with huper and peri, more frequently used of it. But, although anti in the New Testament often means…

νόμος refers to a law or custom, derived from the idea of distribution. It encompasses various meanings, including general law, the Mosaic law, and Christian teachings. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts such as the law of Moses and principles of Christian conduct. Notably, it is used in verses like Romans 3:27 and Galatians 6:2.

Law
A rule of action. (1.) The Law of Nature is the will of God as to human conduct, founded on the moral difference of things, and discoverable by natural light (Rom. 1:20; 2:14, 15). This law binds all men at all times. It is generally designated by the term conscience, or the capacity of being influenced by the moral relations of things.
(2.) The Ceremonial Law prescribes under the Old Testament the rites and ceremonies of worship. This law was obligatory only till Christ, of whom these rites were typical, had finished his work (Heb. 7:9, 11; 10:1; Eph. 2:16). It was fulfilled rather than abrogated by the gospel.
(3.) The Judicial Law, the law which directed the civil policy of the Hebrew nation.
The word is properly used, in Scripture as elsewhere, to express a definite commandment laid down by any recognized authority; but when the word is used with the article, and without any words of limitation, it refers to the expressed will to God, and in nine cases out of ten to the Mosaic law, or to the Pentateuch of which it forms the chief portion. The Hebrew word torah (law) lays more stress on its moral authority, as teaching the truth and guiding in the right way; the Greek nomos (law), on its constraining power as imposed and enforced by a recognized authority. The sense of the word, however, extends its scope and assumes a more abstracts character in the writings of St. Paul. Nomos , when used by him with the article, still refers in general to the law of Moses; but when used without the article, so as to embrace any manifestation of "law," it includes all powers which act on…
In the Bible, signifies sometimes the whole word of God, Ps 19:7-11 119:1-176 Isa 8:20; sometimes the Old Testament, Joh 10:34 15:25, and sometimes the five books of Moses, which formed the first of the three divisions of the Hebrew Scriptures, Lu 24:44 Ac 13:15. The Pentateuch was probably "the law," a copy of which every king was to transcribe for himself and study, and which was to be made known to young and old, in public and in private, De 6:7 17:18,19 31:9-19,26. In other places the Mosaic institutions as a whole are intend by "the law," in distinction from the…

The Greek word ὀργή (orgē) means anger, wrath, or passion. It is derived from a root meaning to swell or teem, indicating an internal agitation. In the New Testament, it describes both human anger and the divine reaction against sin, appearing in verses like Mark 3:5 and Romans 1:18. Lexicons note that it differs from θυμός (thymos), which refers to a more transient emotional state.
Θυμός and ὀργή are found several times together in the N. T. (as at Rom. ii. 8; Ephes. iv. 31; Col. iii. 8; Rev. xix. 15); often also in the Septuagint (Ps. lxxvii. 49; Dan. iii. 13; Mic. v. 15), and often also in other Greek (Plato, Philebus, 47 6; Polybius, vi. 56. 11; Josephus, Antt. xx. 5. 3; Plutarch, De Coh. Ird, 2; Lucian, De Cal. 23); nor are they found only in the connexion of juxtaposition, but one made dependent on the other; thus θυμὸς τῆς ὀργῆς (Rev. xvi. 19; ef. Job iii. 17; Josh. vii. 26); while ὀργὴ θυμοῦ, not occurring in the N. T., is frequent in the Old (2 Chron. xxix. 10; Lam. i. 12; Isai. xxx. 27; Hos. xi.9). On one occasion in the Septuagint all the words of this group occur together (Jer. xxi. 5). When these words, after a considerable anterior history, came to settle down on the passion of anger, as the strongest of all passions, impulses, and desires (see…

The Greek word κατεργάζομαι (katergazomai) is a compound of κατ- and ἐργάζομαι, meaning to work out or accomplish through labor. It encompasses a range of meanings including achieving, producing, and even cultivating land. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts related to moral actions and spiritual outcomes, such as in Romans and Philippians. The lexicons do not present significant disagreements on its meanings.
κατ-εργάζομαι
(emphatic form of ἐργάζομαι),
[in LXX for פּעל, etc. (9 exx., each for a different Heb. word);]
to effect by labour, achieve, work out, bring about: c. acc., Ro 4:15 5:3 7:8, 15, 17, 18, 20, II Co 7:10, Eph 6:13, Ja 1:3; pass., II Co 12:12; c. acc. rei et dat. pers., Ro 7:13, II Co 4:17 7:11 9:11; id. seq. διά, c. gen. pers., Ro 15:18; τ. σωτηρίαν, Phl 2:12; c. acc. pers. seq. εἰς, II Co 5:5 (RV, wrought); of evil deeds,

Phil 212), is very common with reference to the ‘‘ cultivation” of allotments, e.g. P Tebt I. 107 (B.c. 119) ἐφ᾽ ὧι κατεργᾶται τοῖς ἰδίοις dvnAwpacw . . γῆς (ἀρούρας) δέκα, “on condition that he shall cultivate at his own expense 10 arourae of land,” PSI I. 3219 (A.p. 208) ἐπὶ τῷ σε τοῦτο κατεργάσασθαι] mac[y ἐργασΊ]ίᾳ καὶ ἐπιμελείᾳ : cf. also BGU IV. 112136 (B.c. 5) μὴ ἐξόντο[ς] αὐτοῖς διδόναι τοῖς κατεργαζομένοις τὴν μίσθωσιν ἐϊργάτ]αις [π]λεῖον τῶν [διδοἸμένων ἐν τῶι ΚΚόλπωι [κατ]έργων.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

δέ (related to δή, as μέν to μήν, ef. Klotz ad Devar. ii. 2 p. 355), a particle adversative, distinctive, disjunctive, but, moreover, (W.§ 53, 7 and 10, 2); it is much more freq. in the historical parts of the N.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.

Or No-A’mon, the home of Amon, the name of Thebes, the ancient capital of what is called the Middle Empire, in Upper or Southern Egypt. “The multitude of No” (Jer. 46:25) is more correctly rendered, as in the Revised Version, “Amon of No”, i.e., No, where Jupiter Amon had his temple. In Ezek. 30:14, 16 it is simply called “No;” but in ver. 15 the name has the Hebrew Hamon prefixed to it, “Hamon No.” This prefix is probably the name simply of the god usually styled Amon or Ammon. In Nah. 3:8 the “populous No” of the Authorized Version is in the Revised Version correctly rendered “No-Amon.”

εἰμί is a Greek verb meaning 'to be' or 'to exist.' It serves various functions, such as a substantive verb for persons and things, and as a copula linking subjects and predicates. The New Testament frequently uses it in passages like John 1:1 and Matthew 24:3. Notably, it can also express possibility, as seen in Hebrews 9:5.

νόμος refers to a law or custom, derived from the idea of distribution. It encompasses various meanings, including general law, the Mosaic law, and Christian teachings. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts such as the law of Moses and principles of Christian conduct. Notably, it is used in verses like Romans 3:27 and Galatians 6:2.

Law
A rule of action. (1.) The Law of Nature is the will of God as to human conduct, founded on the moral difference of things, and discoverable by natural light (Rom. 1:20; 2:14, 15). This law binds all men at all times. It is generally designated by the term conscience, or the capacity of being influenced by the moral relations of things.
(2.) The Ceremonial Law prescribes under the Old Testament the rites and ceremonies of worship. This law was obligatory only till Christ, of whom these rites were typical, had finished his work (Heb. 7:9, 11; 10:1; Eph. 2:16). It was fulfilled rather than abrogated by the gospel.
(3.) The Judicial Law, the law which directed the civil policy of the Hebrew nation.
The word is properly used, in Scripture as elsewhere, to express a definite commandment laid down by any recognized authority; but when the word is used with the article, and without any words of limitation, it refers to the expressed will to God, and in nine cases out of ten to the Mosaic law, or to the Pentateuch of which it forms the chief portion. The Hebrew word torah (law) lays more stress on its moral authority, as teaching the truth and guiding in the right way; the Greek nomos (law), on its constraining power as imposed and enforced by a recognized authority. The sense of the word, however, extends its scope and assumes a more abstracts character in the writings of St. Paul. Nomos , when used by him with the article, still refers in general to the law of Moses; but when used without the article, so as to embrace any manifestation of "law," it includes all powers which act on…
In the Bible, signifies sometimes the whole word of God, Ps 19:7-11 119:1-176 Isa 8:20; sometimes the Old Testament, Joh 10:34 15:25, and sometimes the five books of Moses, which formed the first of the three divisions of the Hebrew Scriptures, Lu 24:44 Ac 13:15. The Pentateuch was probably "the law," a copy of which every king was to transcribe for himself and study, and which was to be made known to young and old, in public and in private, De 6:7 17:18,19 31:9-19,26. In other places the Mosaic institutions as a whole are intend by "the law," in distinction from the…

The Greek word οὐδέ (oude) is a negative particle that functions as a conjunction meaning 'and not' or 'nor,' and as an adverb meaning 'not even.' It combines elements of negation and exclusion, often appearing in phrases like 'neither... nor.' The New Testament uses it in various contexts, such as in Matthew 6:15 and Acts 4:32.
οὐδέ, [fr. Hom. down], a neg. disjunctive conjunction, compounded of ov and δέ, and therefore prop. i. q. but not; generally, however, its oppositive force being lost, it serves to continue a negation. [On the elision of ε when the next word begins with a vowel (observed by Tdf. in eight instances, neglected in fifty-eight), see TW. Proleg. p. 96; cf. WH. App. p. 146; W.§5, 1 a.; B. p. 10 sq.] It signifies 1. and not, continuing a negation, yet differently from οὔτε; for the latter connects parts or members of the same thing, since τέ is adjunctive like the Lat. que; but οὐδέ places side by side things that are equal and mutually exclude each other [(?). There appears to be some mistake here in what is said about ‘mutual exclusion’ (cf. W. § 55, 6): οὐδέ, like δέ, always makes reference to something preceding; οὔτε to what follows also; the connection of clauses negatived by οὔτε is…

παράβασις refers to a deviation or transgression, derived from the verb παραβαίνω. It encompasses meanings like 'going aside' and 'overstepping,' particularly in a legal or moral context, as seen in Romans and Galatians. The term is used to describe violations of the law, including the Mosaic law. Notably, it is associated with the concept of sin, but it specifically denotes a breach of established rules.
παράβασις, παράπτωμα, ἀγνόημα, ἥττημα. A MOURNFULLY numerous group of words, and one which it would be only too easy to make larger still. Nor is it hard to see why. For sin, which we may define in the 240 SYNONYMS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. ϑιυχνι. language of Augustine, as ‘ factum vel dictuin yel concuvitum aliquid contra eternam legem’ (Con. Faust. xxii. 27; cf. the Stoic definition, ἁμάρτημα, νόμου ἀπαγόρευμα, Plutarch, De Rep. Stoic. 11); or again, ‘ voluntas admittendi vel retinendi quod justitia vetat, et unde liberum est abstinere’ (Con. Jul. i. 47), may be regarded under an infinite number of aspects, and in all languages has been so regarded; and as the diagnosis of it belongs most of all to the Scriptures, nowhere else are we likely to find it contemplated on so many sides, set forth under such various images. It may be regarded as the missing of a mark or aim; it is then ἁμαρτία…

trans-gresh'-un: From "transgress," to pass over or beyond; to overpass, as any rule prescribed as the limit of duty; to break or violate, as a law, civil or moral; the act of transgressing; the violation of a law or known principle of rectitude; breach of command; offense; crime; sin. In the Old Testament pesha`, occurs 80 times, rendered in all versions by "transgression." Its meaning is "rebellion"; see REBELLION. The word "rebellion" differs from this word in that it may be in the heart, though no opportunity should be granted for its manifestation: "An evil man seeketh only rebellion" (Pr 17:11). Here the wise man contemplates an evil heart, looking for an excuse or opportunity to rebel.
The New Testament uses parabasis, "trespass": "The law .... was added because of transgressions" (
