7:2-3 These verses are not an allegory, in which every element of the story has a theological counterpart. Paul simply cites an illustration to make two basic points: Death can release a person from obligation to the law, and freedom from one relationship can allow a person to establish a new one. Paul applies the illustration in 7:4.
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
γὰρ
for
For indicates that what follows this word explains what came before it. Here, it introduces an explanation of an example from God’s law that illustrates how “the law rules over the man for as long as he lives,” as Paul said in the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “For example,” or “As an illustration,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
ἡ & ὕπανδρος γυνὴ τῷ ζῶντι ἀνδρὶ δέδεται νόμῳ; ἐὰν δὲ ἀποθάνῃ ὁ ἀνήρ, κατήργηται & τοῦ ἀνδρός
the & married woman ˱to˲_the living husband /has_been/_bound ˱by˲_law if but /may/_die_off the husband ˱she˲_/has_been/_released & the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἡ γὰρ ὕπανδρος γυνὴ τῷ ζῶντι ἀνδρὶ δέδεται νόμῳ ἐὰν δὲ ἀποθάνῃ ὁ ἀνήρ κατήργηται ἀπὸ τοῦ νόμου τοῦ ἀνδρός)
Paul is speaking of Jewish married women and husbands in general, not of one particular woman or husband. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a more natural phrase. Alternate translation: “married women remain bound by law to their living husbands, but if their husbands die, they have been released … of their husbands”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἡ & ὕπανδρος γυνὴ & δέδεται νόμῳ & κατήργηται
the & married woman & /has_been/_bound ˱by˲_law & ˱she˲_/has_been/_released
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the law continually binds the married woman … God releases her”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
ἡ & ὕπανδρος γυνὴ τῷ ζῶντι ἀνδρὶ δέδεται νόμῳ & κατήργηται ἀπὸ τοῦ νόμου τοῦ ἀνδρός
the & married woman ˱to˲_the living husband /has_been/_bound ˱by˲_law & ˱she˲_/has_been/_released from the law ˱of˲_the husband
Here Paul speaks of the law as if it were a person who could tie a woman to her husband. Paul means that the law of Moses requires a married woman to stay married to her husband only while he is alive. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “God requires in his law that the married woman remain married to her living husband … she is no longer required to remain married to the husband”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
τοῦ νόμου τοῦ ἀνδρός
the law ˱of˲_the husband
Paul is using the possessive form to describe the law that is related to the husband. This phrase refers to the law already described in the previous clause. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “the law that requires her to remain bound to the husband”
