Audio commentary on this verse
Note 4 at Ro 5:16: Adam's one sin produced a sin nature in all people (see note 9 at Ro 5:21) that, in turn, caused each person to commit individual acts of sin (see note 6 at Ro 5:19). However, Jesus not only dealt with the original sin that contaminated the human race, but He also dealt with each individual act of sin.
