in_o which_o place_n the_o apostle_n divide_v mankind_n into_o two_o sort_n that_o be_v into_o those_o that_o sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n and_o those_o that_o sin_v

sin_n without_o the_o write_a law_n which_o opinion_n answer_v not_o to_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o purpose_n in_o these_o word_n be_v to_o teach_v that_o even_o before_o the_o law_n death_n reign_v not_o only_o over_o those_o which_o by_o their_o proper_a actual_a sin_n do_v voluntary_o stir_v up_o against_o themselves_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n as_o adam_n do_v when_o he_o transgress_v the_o law_n of_o god_n by_o his_o actual_a disobedience_n but_o that_o it_o reign_v also_o over_o those_o which_o actual_o can_v commit_v no_o sin_n which_o as_o the_o best_a expositor_n
