Romans 7:7
ז אִם כֵּן, מַה נֹּאמַר? הַאִם הַתּוֹרָה הִיא בְּחֶזְקַת חֵטְא? חַס וְחָלִילָה! אַךְ לֹא הָיִיתִי יוֹדֵעַ מַהוּ חֵטְא אִלּוּלֵי הַתּוֹרָה; הֲרֵי לֹא הָיִיתִי מַכִּיר אֶת הַתַּאֲוָה אִלּוּ לֹא אָמְרָה הַתּוֹרָה ״לֹא–תַחְמֹד״. (שמות כ׳ יג׳//דברים ה׳ יז׳)
Romans 7:7
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. (KJV)
Paul goes on teaching about the Torah asking if the Torah is sin in Romans 7:7. Paul’s conclusion is that the command gave him knowledge of sin and due to his weakness he sinned. The Torah didn’t make him sin.
