  • Rom 7:1-3 : 1 Do you not know, brothers, (for I speak to those who know the law,) that the law has dominion over a person as long as he lives? 2 For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives; but if the husband is dead, she is released from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband lives, she is married to another man, she will be called an adulteress: but if her husband is dead, she is free from that law; so that she is not an adulteress, though she is married to another man.
