Context of Romans 8:1

Commentaries on Romans 8:1
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 1There is, therefore, now no condemnation - To do justice to St. Paul's reasoning, this chapter must be read in the closest connection with the preceding. There we have seen the unavailing struggles of an awakened Jew, who sought pardon and holiness from that law which he was conscious he had broken; and in which he could find no provision for pardon, and no power to sanctify. This conviction having brought him to the very brink of despair, and, being on…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 1There is, therefore, now - This is connected with the closing verses of Romans 7:23-25.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 1The freedom of believers from condemnation. (1-9) Their privileges as being the children of God. (10-17) Their hopeful prospects under tribulations.

Paul confidently declares that people who belong to Christ Jesus do not need to fear condemnation for their sins.Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1-39In this surpassing chapter the several streams of the preceding argument meet and flow in one "river of the water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb," until it seems to lose itself in the ocean of a blissful eternity. First: The Sanctification of Believers (Ro 8:1-13). 1. There is therefore now, &c.--referring to the immediately preceding context [Olshausen, Philippi, Meyer, Alford, &c.].
