15

For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.

ExplanationCommentary
EXPLANATION

Verse 15. For the law worketh wrath, not of itself, nor by the intention of the lawgiver, but in as much as it is the occasion of greater punishments, when persons transgress it knowingly. Witham.—The law abstracting from faith and grace, worketh wrath occasionally, by being an occasion of many transgressions, which provoke God’s wrath. Challoner.
