Romans 1:24

1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies among themselves.

Romans 2:16

2:16 on the day when God will judge the secrets of human hearts, according to my gospel through Christ Jesus.


sn Possibly an allusion to Ps 81:12.

tn The genitive articular infinitive τοῦ ἀτιμάζεσθαι (tou atimazesqai, “to dishonor”) has been taken as (1) an infinitive of purpose; (2) an infinitive of result; or (3) an epexegetical (i.e., explanatory) infinitive, expanding the previous clause.

tn Grk “among them.”

tn The form of the Greek word is either present or future, but it is best to translate in future because of the context of future judgment.

tn Grk “of people.”

sn On my gospel cf. Rom 16:25; 2 Tim 2:8.
