Romans 1:31 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 1:31

Without understanding
Of God, of his nature and worship, of things divine and even moral, being given up to a reprobate mind:

covenant breakers;
had no regard to private or public contracts:

without natural affection;
to their parents, children, relations and friends:

implacable;
when once offended there was no reconciling of them:

unmerciful;
had no pity and compassion to persons in distress.
