Γενναδίου. Νόμον δὴ οὖν ἁμαρτίας ἐν τοῖς μέλεσι, τὸ βούλημα καὶ τὸν σκοπὸν τῆς παθητῆς λέγει σαρκός· ἐπειδὴ καὶ παντὸς ἴδιον νόμου τὸ τοῖς ὑπ’ αὐτὸν τὰ αὐτοῖς δοκοῦντα παρακελεύεσθαι· καὶ ἐν τῷ “συνήδομαι γὰρ τῷ νόμῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ.” τῷ “γὰρ,” ἀντὶ τοῦ τοίνυν, ὡς καὶ ἐν ἄλλοις ἐχρήσατο. πάντων γὰρ ἀπὸ τοῦ, “οἶδα μὲν ὅτι ὁ νόμος πνευματικός ἐστιν” αὐτῷ προει- ρημένων, συναγωγὴν ἠβουλήθη ποιήσασθαι· τῷ μὲν νόμῳ τοίνυν λέγων “συνήδομαι τοῦ Θεοῦ, κατὰ τὸν ἔσω ἄνθρωπον·” ἤγουν τὸ ἐν ἡμῖν νοερόν. καὶ χαίρω τούτου τοῖς παραγγέλμασι. βλέπω δὲ νόμον ἕτερον τῶν ἐμαυτοῦ μελῶν, ἀντιπαραταττόμενον τούτῳ· καὶ πρὸς βίαν εἰς ἑαυτὸν ἐνυποσπῶντά με. καὶ οἷον αἰχμαλώτῳ περι- κεχρημένον μοι· οὐ γὰρ ᾧ χαίρω νόμῳ ὑπακούω, ἀλλ’ ᾧ μὴ χαίρω· καὶ μᾶλλόν μου τῶν μελῶν ὁ θεῖος οὐδαμῶς νόμος, τοῦ θείου νόμου κατακρατεῖ. καὶ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἀγωνιζόμενος, ἀντισχεῖν οὐκ ἀρκῶ.
