1 What then shall we say? Are we to persist in Chet (sin) in order that the unmerited Chen v’Chesed Hashem might increase? 2 Chas v’shalom! Vi-bahlt (since) we have died to Chet, how can we still live in it?
6 Having da’as of this, that, with Moshiach, our old humanity (in Adam) has been put to death on Moshiachʼs Etz6:6 Dt 21:23 (Tree, [the Etz HaKelelat Hashem], the Tree of the Curse of G-d) in order that the etsem HaAdam HaChet (the essence of the sinful human condition) might be done away with, so that we might no longer serve Chet (sin).6:6 cf. Ro 6:23 11 So also you must reckon yourselves mesim (dead ones) to Chet (Sin) but Chayyim l'Hashem b’Moshiach Yehoshua (alive to G-d in Messiah Yehoshua).
12 Therefore, do not let Chet (Sin) reign in your mortal body to obey its ta’avot,6:12 Ro 5:17,21 13 And do not give Chet (sin) control of your natural capacities as neshek (weapons) of peysha (unrighteousness, transgression), but present yourselves to Hashem as ones alive from the Mesim and present to Hashem your natural capacities as neshek (weapons) of Tzedek Olamim. 14 For Chet (sin) shall not exercise bailus (sovereignty, ownership, dominion) over you; for you are not under Gezetz6:14 Ro 8:2 but under Chesed (Grace).
