On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

"He who sins certainly lives to sin; we have died to sin through the grace of Christ; then it is false, that what abolishes sin gives vigor to it." The state of the case is really this, -- that the faithful are never reconciled to God without the gift of regeneration; nay, we are for this end justified, -- that we may afterwards serve God in holiness of life.

John Calvin· Commentaries, 1554reformed

The apostle is very full in pressing the necessity of holiness in this chapter, which may be reduced to two heads:--His exhortations to holiness, which show the nature of it; and his motives or arguments to enforce those exhortations, which show the necessity of it. For the first, we may hence observe the nature of sanctification, what it is, and wherein it consists.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
