“Sin (personified by Paul) remains an active force, and 6:12–23 warns against being enslaved by Sin.”
Raymond E. Brown, An Introduction to the New Testament: The Abridged Edition

“A Jesus' who walked through the world, knowing exactly what the morrow would bring, knowing the certainty that after three days the Father would raise him up, is a Jesus who can rouse our admiration, but still a Jesus far away from us. He is a Jesus far away from a mankind that can only hope in the future and believe in God's goodness, far from a mankind that must face the supreme uncertainty of death with faith but without knowledge of what is beyond. On the other hand, a Jesus for whom the future was as much a mystery, a dread and a hope as it is for us, and yet at the same time a Jesus who would say, 'Not my will, but yours!' - this is a Jesus who could effectively teach us to live, for this is a Jesus who would have gone through life's real trials.”
