Romans 7:2

“In this sense we must take the whole of the following passage: “For the woman that hath a husband is bound by law to the husband while he liveth; but if the husband die, she is discharged from the law of the husband.” — editor's note: Rom vii. 2, 3.

“A widow who is “loosed from the law of her husband” has, for her one duty, to continue a widow.” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 2.

“In another verse he speaks to the same effect: ‘The wife is bound…as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband; she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord,’ that is to a Christian.” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 2.

“So then, if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 1–3.

“But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the spirit of God.”” — editor's note: 1 Cor. vii. 39, 40, cf. Rom. vii. 2.

““The woman who is under a husband is bound by the law so long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead she is loosed from the law of her husband.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 2.

“Accordingly, it will be without cause that you will say that God wills not a divorced woman to be joined to another man “while her husband liveth,” as if He do will it “when he is dead;” whereas if she is not bound to him when dead, no more is she when living.” — editor's note: Comp. Rom. vii. 1–3.

“If, however, the husband shall have died, she has been freed from (his) law, (so) that she is not an adulteress if made (wife) to another husband.”” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 2, 3, not exactly rendered.

“And the Apostle Paul shows the limit of this state of affairs, for he says it is to be observed as long as her husband liveth; but on the husband’s death he gives permission to marry.” — editor's note: Rom. vii. 2, 3.
