KwabaseRoma 7:3

Izhibhalo Ezingcwele

3 Ngoko ke, ukuba uthe waba kuyimbi indoda, yakubon’ ukuba indoda yakhe isadla ubomi, kothiwa ngumkrexezikazi. Ke ukuba ithe yafa indoda yakhe, woba ukhululekile kuwo umthetho, ukuba angabi mkrexezikazi, ethe waba kuyimbi indoda.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So then if while her husband liveth,.... True indeed it is, that whilst her husband is alive, if

she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress; she will be noted and accounted of as such everybody, except in the above mentioned cases:

but if her husband be dead; then there can be no exception to her marriage:

she is free from the law; of marriage, by which she was before bound:

so that she is no adulteress; nor will any reckon her such; she is clear from any such imputation:

though she be married to another man; hence it appears that second marriages are lawful.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

So then if ... - compare Matthew 5:32.

She shall be called - She will be. The word used here χρηματίσει chrēmatisei is often used to denote being called by an oracle or by divine revelation. But it is here employed in the simple sense of being commonly called, or of being so regarded.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Romans 7:3. So then, if, while her husband liveth — The object of the apostle's similitude is to show that each party is equally bound to the other; but that the death of either dissolves the engagement.

So - she is no adulteress, though she be married to another — And do not imagine that this change would argue any disloyalty in you to your Maker; for, as he has determined that this law of ordinances shall cease, you are no more bound to it than a woman is to a deceased husband, and are as free to receive the Gospel of Christ as a woman in such circumstances would be to remarry.
