Stephen Westerholm, Perspectives Old and New on Paul: The “Lutheran” Paul and His Critics (Grand Rapids: William B. Eerdmans, 2004) 297, concludes: “Paul sometimes uses ‘law’ (νόμος) to mean the Old Testament Scriptures, or more specifically the Pentateuch. But according to his most frequent usage, ‘law’ refers to the Sinaitic legislation.”

Stanley E. Porter, “Did Paul Have Opponents in Rome and What Were They Opposing?,” in Paul and His Opponents (Leiden: Brill, 2005) 149-168, concludes that the level of conflict Paul had with antagonists in Rome was much less than in other cities. It is perhaps for this reason that his unqualified affirmation of the law was sufficient in Romans. In 1 Timothy, the qualification was probably necessary because of the level of hostility and the type of disagreement.

Herman Ridderbos, Paul: An Outline of His Theology (Grand Rapids: William B. Eerdmans, 1975) 144, says of Rom 7:7ff.: “It is not the law itself, therefore, which is sin. But sin avails itself of the law as its starting point, that is to say, sin—here thought of as a personified power—gets its opportunity through the law. For the law forbids sin. Consequently, when the law comes on man with its prohibition, sin springs into action and awakens in man the desire for what is forbidden by the commandment ” (emphasis added).

Abraham Malherbe, Paul and the Popular Philosophers (Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 1989) 123, states: “It is not said that sound teaching makes its recipient sound . . . ” But since throughout 1 Timothy Paul emphasizes the connection between orthodoxy and orthopraxy, there is no good reason to try to sever the link between content and conduct here.
