Rom 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Rom 8:36 (according as it hath been written—'For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long, we were reckoned as sheep of slaughter,')
Paul writing in the spring of 57 Ad, to the Saints at Rome, He asked several questions.
1. Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ?
2. Should tribulation, distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Then He quotes: Psalm 44:22. (Similar verses in Scripture) Psa 141:7; Joh 16:2; 1Co 15:30; 2Co 4:11
Relatable verses also to emphasize this is founded in Isa 53:7; Jer 11:19, Jer 12:3, Jer 51:40; Act 8:32
In that day, tribulation, distress, persecution, famine,
Nakedness
gymnotēs
3x: nakedness; want of proper and sufficient clothing, Rom 8:35; 2Co 11:27; spiritual nakedness, being destitute of spiritual clothing, Rev 3:18.
gumnotēs
goom-not'-ace

or peril (danger),
or sword
machaira
29x: a large knife, dagger; a sword, Mat 26:47; Mat 26:51; the sword of the executioner, Act 12:2; Rom 8:35; Heb 11:37; hence, φορεῖν μάχαιραν, to bear the sword, to have the power of life and death, Rom 13:4; meton. war, Mat 10:34.
In that day, they used swords to defend their countries and things of that nature, what would be the purpose of these verses today, in 2022 in a place where we use guns, to kill or defend our countries today? In that day those who rejected Christ, and decided to go back to the Law -> Would kill Christians, having been freed from the Law in Christ, we also know that the progressive killings of Christians in that day eventually got to an all time high, and the desolation of Israel continued to grow further into darkness.
We see Paul having killed Christians at one point in time.
Acts 22: Here is some of the things Paul talked about his early life.
Acts 22:4 “I worked hard and killed men and women who believed as I believe today. I put them in chains and sent them to prison. 5 The head religious leader and the leaders of the people can tell you this is true. I got letters from them to take to our Jewish brothers in the city of Damascus. I was going there to put the Christians in chains and bring them to Jerusalem where they would be beaten.
