Uma das grandes contribuições da Epístola de Paulo aos Romanos é a luz que ela lança sobre o status e o modo de vida do cristão no novo ambiente salvífico provido pela graça de Deus em Cristo. Paulo discute essa questão nos capítulos 5-8 de sua epístola, onde formula e responde perguntas de grande relevância a respeito da justificação pela fé e da nova vida em Cristo. Nesse contexto aparece uma das declarações mais intrigantes da carta. O apóstolo afirma que o crente em Cristo já foi “libertado do pecado” (6:18, 22). Qual o sentido dessa declaração? O que significa estar livre do pecado no contexto dessa passagem? O presente estudo aborda essas questões da perspectiva do método close reading, a fim de elucidar o significado da expressão ἐλευθερωθέντες δὲ ἀπὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας e suas implicações para a vida prática do cristão. A análise do contexto literário, linguístico e sociocultural do texto, bem como dos temas e palavras nele presentes, aponta para a cruz de Cristo como o evento da libertação.
