Romans 7:2

Chinese (Simplified) Contemporary Bible (CCB Bible) (圣经当代译本修订版)

比方说，一个妇人结了婚，只要丈夫还在世，她就受律法的约束要与丈夫在一起。如果丈夫死了，她就脱离了与丈夫的婚姻关系。

这是什么意思？

This verse from Paul's letter to the Romans explains that a wife is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives, but if he dies, she is free of this bond. The key message here is about legal and marital obligations.

儿童解释

Imagine you have a toy car, and there are rules about how you can play with it. If the person who made those rules goes away, then you don't have to follow those rules anymore. This verse is like that but for grown-ups and marriage rules.

历史背景

The Apostle Paul wrote this letter around AD 57-58 to the Christian community in Rome. He was addressing issues of Jewish law and Gentile freedom within the context of Christ's redemptive work, using marriage as an analogy.

Why did Paul use marriage as an analogy?

Paul used marriage to illustrate deeper spiritual truths about the relationship between Christians and God's law, showing how Christ’s death brings new freedom.

How does this verse apply beyond marriage?

It applies broadly to any situation where a person is bound by obligations that cease when those conditions no longer exist, such as legal or contractual situations.

What does it mean to be 'loosed from the law'?

Being loosed means being freed from specific obligations or restrictions. In this context, it refers to being free of marital duties once a spouse has passed away.

How can Romans 7:2 help in understanding freedom in Christ?

It helps by showing that just as death ends legal marriage bonds, so the death and resurrection of Jesus brings new spiritual freedoms for believers from the old law's constraints.
