Barnes New Testament Notes by Albert Barnes

THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS - Chapter 3 - Verse 12

Verse 12. They have all gone out of the way. They have declined from the true path of piety and virtue.

They are together. They have at the same time; or they have equally become unprofitable. They are as one; they are joined, or united, in this declension. The expression denotes union or similarity.

Become unprofitable. This word in Hebrew means, to become putrid and offensive, like fruit that is spoiled. In Arabic, it is applied to milk that becomes sour. Applied to moral subjects, it means to become corrupt and useless. They are of no value in regard to works of righteousness.

There is none, etc. This is taken literally from the Hebrew.
