For as by one man's disobedience [1] many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.[2]

  1. Adam’s sin is variously referred to as an offense (Romans 5:14), a transgression (Romans 5:16-18) and an act of disobedience. Perhaps many words are needed to capture the full magnitude of what Adam did. The original word for disobedience means inattention; the original word for transgression means a slip or fall; and the original word for offense means a going over. Because Adam didn’t pay proper attention to his Father’s words, he slipped and fell over the cliff into the valley of the shadow of death.
  2. New King James (KJV)
