On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

But this is to limit the apostle's idea too much; for as the same word is properly rendered "righteousness" in Ro 8:4, where it means "the righteousness of the law as fulfilled by us who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit," so here it denotes Christ's whole "obedience unto death," considered as the one meritorious ground of the reversal of the condemnation which came by Adam.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

First, By the offence and disobedience of one many were made sinners, and judgment came upon all men to condemnation. That Adam's sin was disobedience, disobedience to a plain and express command: and it was a command of trial. The thing he did was therefore evil because it was forbidden, and not otherwise; but this opened the door to other sins, though itself seemingly small.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Justification of life - Is that sentence of God, by which a sinner under sentence of death is adjudged to life.
