7:7a and 7:12 say the same thing from different angles: God's Law is not sin and God's Law is holy and righteous and good. Paul explains how the Law "brought sin to life" in his own eyes (it was always there) by the commandment. In other words, when the Standard came, then Paul was agonizingly aware of his utter sinfulness. Paul's (and my) sin is his cause of death, not God's Law. God's Law was just an instrument that made him aware of it, made him see it. So, just like anything that comes from God, it (the Law) is holy and righteous and good - it is perfect, fair, and beneficial. This paragraph is in conclusion to 7:1-6 in the sense that Paul is saying, "...therefore the Law is not sin, in fact it's holy and righteous and good." And he is saying this in response to a likely issue about the Law in light of what he stated in 7:1-6, that he has died to the Law and now serves in a new way, through the Spirit.

Romans

Romans 7:7-12

NT

nasb

What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? May it never be!

On the contrary, I would not have come to know sin

except through the Law;

concessive

for I would not have known about coveting

if the Law had not said, "YOU SHALL NOT COVET."

conditional

But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every kind;

ideaexplanation

ground

for apart from the Law sin is dead.

I was once alive apart from the Law;

but when the commandment came,

sin became alive

and I died;

progression

temporal

alternative

and this commandment, which was to result in life, proved to result in death for me;

series

for sin, taking an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me

and through it killed me.

So then, the Law is holy,

and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
