Commentary on Romans, Book VI

Origen of Alexandria · c. 244–246 · PG 14 (Migne) — Rufinus Latin · Original English Translation

Baptized into Christ’s death§1

1All of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death. We were buried with him by baptism into death, so that we too might walk in newness of life.

Latin · §1

Quicumque baptizati sumus in Christo Iesu, in mortem ipsius baptizati sumus. Consepulti enim sumus cum illo per baptismum in mortem, ut quomodo surrexit Christus a mortuis, ita et nos in novitate vitae ambulemus.

Dead to sin; instruments of righteousness§2

2How can we who died to sin still live in it?. Present your members to God as instruments for righteousness. Glory to God. Amen.

Latin · §2

Mortui enim sumus peccato, quomodo adhuc vivemus in illo? Exhibete membra vestra arma iustitiae Deo. Gloria Deo. Amen.
