Romanos 1:26 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 1:26

For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections
Because of their idolatrous practices, God left them to very dishonourable actions, sodomitical ones, both among the men and women:

for even the women did change the natural use into that which is
against nature;
either by prostituting themselves to, and complying with the "sodomitical" embraces of men, in a way that is against nature F8; or by making use of such ways and methods with themselves, or other women, to gratify their lusts, which were never designed by nature for such an use: of these vicious women, and their practices, Seneca F9 speaks, when he says,

``libidine veto nec maribus quidem cedunt, pati natae; Dii illas Deoeque, male perdant; adeo perversum commentae, genus impudicitiae, viros ineunt:''

also Clemens Alexandrinus F11 has respect to such, saying,

``(gunaikev andrizontai para fusin, gamou men ai te kai) (gamousai gunaikev) ''

and such there were among the Jews, whom they call (wzb wz twllwomx) (Myvn) F12, and whom the priests were forbidden to marry.

Romanos 1:26 In-Context

24 Por lo cual tambi茅n Dios los entreg贸 a las concupiscencias de sus corazones para inmundicia, para que contaminasen sus cuerpos entre s铆 mismos ;
25 los cuales mudaron la verdad de Dios en mentira, honrando y sirviendo a las criaturas antes que al Creador, el cual es bendito por los siglos. Am茅n.
26 Por lo cual Dios los entreg贸 a afectos vergonzosos; pues aun sus mujeres mudaron el natural uso en el uso que es contra naturaleza;
27 y del mismo modo tambi茅n los machos, dejando el uso natural de las hembras, se encendieron en sus concupiscencias los unos con los otros, cometiendo cosas nefandas machos con machos, y recibiendo en s铆 mismos la recompensa que provino de su error.
28 Y como a ellos no les pareci贸 tener a Dios en cuenta, Dios los entreg贸 a perverso entendimiento, para que hicieran lo que no conviene,
