Therefore, my brothers The word "Therefore" connects this verse to the preceding discussion, indicating a conclusion or result. The Greek word "ἀδελφοί" (adelphoi), translated as "brothers," is often used in the New Testament to refer to fellow believers, emphasizing the familial bond among Christians.

The Christian, as the last chapter has shown, is so united to Christ that whatever has happened to his Master has happened also to him. Christ was put to death upon the cross; he therefore has also been put to death with Him. But why put to death to the Law? Probably all that is meant is simply that the Christian died, and therefore all the relations contracted before that death came to an end. At the same time he entered upon new relations corresponding to his new and risen state. The argument can hardly be said to have a logical cogency in a controversial sense. It is not, quite strictly speaking, argument at all, but rather emphatic assertion, with all the weight of apostolic authority, and in a graphic illustrative form. The gist of it all is, "You have done with the Law and assumed a new spiritual life in Christ: see that you make this a reality." That we should bring forth fruit unto God.--This mystical and ethical union with Christ will not be unproductive; it will have for its fruit a life consecrated to God.
