To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Barnes gives us six reasons for un- derstanding the seventh of Romans, " as descriptive of the operations of the mind of Paul subsequent to his conversion." These are mostly the same as those of Professor Hodge, and have been already answered The first and the last, however, may require special attention. The first is, " Because it seems to me to CHRISTIAN PERFECTION. 293 be the most obvious. It is that which will strike plain men as being the natural meaning ; men who have not a theory to supp...ort, and who understand language in its usual sense." I cannot admit that any one capable of grasping the scope of the apostle's argument, as contained in the sixth, seventh, and eighth chapters, would consider Mr. Barnes' construction of the seventh chapter " the most obvious." It might strike some " plain men as being the most natural ;" but they will, I think, gene- rally be those who, if they " have not a theory to sup- port," yet approach the investigation under strong biases. The language of the Bible can scarcely mean any thing else to most men than what they have always been accustomed to hear attributed to it by their teach- ers.
