a righteousness coming from God, which depends on faith in Jesus Christ and extends to all who believe. No distinction is made;

ἐστιν estin “there is”

What then were the circumstances under which this took place? Was it after he had been circumcised, or before?

ὄντι onti “being”

For the Law inflicts punishment; but where no Law exists, there can be no violation of Law.

ἔστιν estin “there is”

All depends on faith, and for this reason--that acceptance with God might be an act of pure grace,

ἐστιν estin “is”

so that the promise should be made sure to all Abraham's true descendants; not merely to those who are righteous through the Law, but to those who are righteous through a faith like that of Abraham. Thus in the sight of God in whom he believed, who gives

Under utterly hopeless circumstances he hopefully believed, so that he might become the forefather of many nations, in agreement with the words "Equally numerous shall your posterity be."

ἔσται estai “will be”

and being absolutely certain that whatever promise He is bound by He is able also to make good.

ἐστιν estin “He is”

For already, while we were still helpless, Christ at the right moment died for the ungodly.

ὄντων ontōn “being”

But God gives proof of His love to us in Christ's dying for us while we were still sinners.

ὄντων ontōn “when being”

For if while we were hostile to God we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, it is still more certain that now that we are reconciled, we shall obtain salvation through Christ's life.

ὄντες ontes “being”

For prior to the Law sin was already in the world; only it is not entered in the account against us when no Law exists.

ἦν ēn “was”ὄντος ontos “there being”

Yet Death reigned as king from Adam to Moses even over those who had not sinned, as Adam did, against Law. And in Adam we have a type of Him whose coming was still future.

ἐστιν estin “is”

For since we have become one with Him by sharing in His death, we shall also be one with Him by sharing in His resurrection.

ἐσόμεθα· esometha “we will be;”

For Sin shall not be lord over you, since you are subjects not of Law, but of grace.

ἐστε este “you are”

Are we therefore to sin because we are no longer under the authority of Law, but under grace? No, indeed!

ἐσμὲν esmen “we are”

ἐστε este “you are”

But thanks be to God that though you were once in thraldom to Sin, you have now yielded a hearty obedience to that system of truth in which you have been instructed.

ἦτε ēte “you were”

For when you were the bondservants of sin, you were under no sort of subjection to Righteousness.

ἦμεν ēmen “we were”

For we know that the Law is a spiritual thing; but I am unspiritual--the slave, bought and sold, of sin.

ἐστιν, estin “is,”εἰμι eimi “am”

For I know that in me, that is, in my lower self, nothing good has its home; for while the will to do right is present with me, the power to carry it out is not.

ἔστιν estin “is”
