The law/commandments define transgression..
In other words, If there was no law or commandment that said....>"tho shalt not murder"< then if you murdered, there is nothing to define it as murder.
"where there is NO LAW.....there is NO SIN.. no Transgression"... = There is no LAW that defines that deed as a sin.
So, when we are unbelievers, the law and commandments continually define our carnality as sin.
This is the "curse of the Law".....as the law is what defines us all as .."all have sinned".
When we are born again, our "old man of sin" that was defined by the law, is crucified with Christ, and we are "made free from the law", having become ":dead to the Law".
This is explained as.. "Christ is the end of the Law, for righteousness, to everyone who believes"
"the born again are not under the law, but under Grace".
"Christ has redeemed the born again from the CURSE OF THE LAW".
