G2532–καί–kai

So, my brethren, to you also the Law died through the incarnation of Christ, that you might be wedded to Another, namely to Him who rose from the dead in order that we might yield fruit to God.

καὶ kai “also”

But seeing that we have died to that which once held us in bondage, the Law has now no hold over us, so that we render a service which, instead of being old and formal, is new and spiritual.

καὶ kai “and”

and, as it turned out, the very Commandment which was to bring me life, brought me death.

καὶ kai “And”

For sin seized the advantage, and by means of the Commandment it completely deceived me, and also put me to death.

καὶ kai “and”

So that the Law itself is holy, and the Commandment is holy, just and good.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

but I discover within me a different Law at war with the Law of my understanding, and leading me captive to the Law which is everywhere at work in my body--the Law of sin.

καὶ kai “and”

for the Spirit's Law-- telling of Life in Christ Jesus--has set me free from the Law that deals only with sin and death.

καὶ kai “and”

For what was impossible to the Law--powerless as it was because it acted through frail humanity--God effected. Sending His own Son in a body like that of sinful human nature and as a sacrifice for sin, He pronounced sentence upon sin in human nature;

καὶ kai “and”

Because for the mind to be given up to earthly things means death; but for it to be given up to spiritual things means Life and peace.

καὶ kai “and”

And if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead is dwelling in you, He who raised up Christ from the dead will give Life also to your mortal bodies because of His Spirit who dwells in you.

καὶ kai “also”

and if children, then heirs too--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ; if indeed we are sharers in Christ's sufferings, in order that we may also be sharers in His glory.

καὶ kai “also”καὶ kai “also”

Yet there was always the hope that at last the Creation itself would also be set free from the thraldom of decay so as to enjoy the liberty that will attend the glory of the children of God.

καὶ kai “also”

For we know that the whole of Creation is groaning together in the pains of childbirth until this hour.

καὶ kai “and”

And more than that, we ourselves, though we possess the Spirit as a foretaste and pledge of the glorious future, yet we ourselves inwardly sigh, as we wait and long for open recognition as sons through the deliverance of our bodies.

καὶ kai “even”καὶ kai “also”

It is *in hope* that we have been saved. But an object of hope is such no longer when it is present to view; for when a man has a thing before his eyes, how can he be said to hope for it?

καὶ kai “also”

In the same way the Spirit also helps us in our weakness; for we do not know what prayers to offer nor in what way to offer them. But the Spirit Himself pleads for us in yearnings that can find no words,

καὶ kai “also”

For those whom He has known beforehand He has also pre-destined to bear the likeness of His Son, that He might be the Eldest in a vast family of brothers;

καὶ kai “also”

and those whom He has pre-destined He also has called; and those whom He has called He has also declared free from guilt; and those whom He has declared free from guilt He has also crowned with glory.

He who did not withhold even His own Son, but gave Him up for all of us, will He not also with Him freely give us all things?

καὶ kai “also”

Who is there to condemn them? Christ Jesus died, or rather has risen to life again. He is also at the right hand of God, and is interceding for us.

καὶ kai “also”καί kai “also”καὶ kai “and”

when I declare that I have deep grief and unceasing anguish of heart.

καὶ kai “and”

To them belongs recognition as God's sons, and they have His glorious Presence and the Covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the Temple service, and the ancient Promises.

To them the Patriarchs belong, and from them in respect of His human lineage came the Christ, who is exalted above all, God blessed throughout the Ages. Amen.

καὶ kai “and”

For the words are the language of promise and run thus, "About this time next year I will come, and Sarah shall have a son."

καὶ kai “and”

Nor is that all: later on there was Rebecca too. She was soon to bear two children to her husband, our forefather Isaac--
