"because all sinned" (vs 12) - does this mean that all sinned in Adam or that all have sinned individually? Uncertain grammatically, but both are true. What does it mean that sin is not counted when there is no law? We do not know our sin nearly as much (i.e. it is not counted in our minds) - 3:20, 7:7 What is meant by "like the transgression of Adam"? Adam had a clear law revealed to him that he transgressed. Therefore, those whose sinning is not like the transgression of Adam would be those who lived before the law was given, or outside of Israel where the law was unknown. Is Jesus and the free gift like or not like Adam and his sin? Yes. It is a contrast and all contrasts are built upon a basis of similarity that then are distinguished. They are alike, but Jesus and the gift are so much better! Does v 18 teach that every human will be justified and receive life in Jesus? No. The emphasis is on the universality of the realities of condemnation and the gift of justification (i.e. we are not just talking Jews or Gentiles, before law or after, etc. Everyone is a condemned sinner by nature and everyone is offered the gift of righteousness through Jesus.). To be teaching universal salvation would be contradicting the rest of the book of Romans, take for example vs 17.

vs 15-17 If I told you to sin right now, how long would it take you to come up with something and how hard would it be to execute? However, if I told you to buy a really significant gift for your dad, how long would it take you to come up with something and how much would it cost you to get it? Adam sinned, Jesus gave an incredible gift! Think of someone who has sinned against you. How hard was it for you to come to the conclusion that they sinned and agree with God that they deserve to be punished? Now think of the person that has sinned against you more often and more significantly than anyone else. How hard would it be for you to not only think of them without their sin, but also really make them clean and new without their sin? Adam condemned you, Jesus made you right! We have it in our power to take life. You can kill a bug, kill an animal, murder a person or kill yourself. But we actually shouldn't call this power, but rather weakness, since we can not stop our own imminent death. We do not rule over death; death rules over us. But in the gospel there is life. God speaks and life happens. In Jesus is life! We cannot create life; in the gospel God frees us from the rule of death and sets us up as rulers in life! 1 Corinthians 15:45 Because of Adam, death reigns; because of Jesus, we reign in life!

Διὰ τοῦτο ὥσπερ διʼ ἑνὸς ἀνθρώπου ἡ ἁμαρτία εἰς τὸν κόσμον εἰσῆλθεν
Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man,
καὶ διὰ τῆς ἁμαρτίας ὁ θάνατος,
and death through sin,
progression
καὶ οὕτως εἰς πάντας ἀνθρώπους ὁ θάνατος διῆλθεν,
and so death spread to all men
comparison
ἐφʼ ᾧ πάντες ἥμαρτον•
because all sinned—
ground
ἄχρι γὰρ νόμου ἁμαρτία ἦν ἐν κόσμῳ,
for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given,
ἁμαρτία δὲ οὐκ ἐλλογεῖται μὴ ὄντος νόμου,
but sin is not counted where there is no law.
ἀλλὰ ἐβασίλευσεν ὁ θάνατος ἀπὸ Ἀδὰμ μέχρι Μωϋσέως καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς μὴ ἁμαρτήσαντας ἐπὶ τῷ ὁμοιώματι τῆς παραβάσεως Ἀδὰμ
Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam,
ὅς ἐστιν τύπος τοῦ μέλλοντος.
who was a type of the one who was to come.
ideaexplanation
Ἀλλʼ οὐχ ὡς τὸ παράπτωμα, οὕτως καὶ τὸ χάρισμα•
But the free gift is not like the trespass.
εἰ γὰρ τῷ τοῦ ἑνὸς παραπτώματι οἱ πολλοὶ ἀπέθανον,
For if many died through one man’s trespass,
πολλῷ μᾶλλον ἡ χάρις τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἡ δωρεὰ ἐν χάριτι τῇ τοῦ ἑνὸς ἀνθρώπου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ εἰς τοὺς πολλοὺς ἐπερίσσευσεν.
much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.
καὶ οὐχ ὡς διʼ ἑνὸς ἁμαρτήσαντος τὸ δώρημα•
And the free gift is not like the result of that one man’s sin.
τὸ μὲν γὰρ κρίμα ἐξ ἑνὸς εἰς κατάκριμα,
For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation,
τὸ δὲ χάρισμα ἐκ πολλῶν παραπτωμάτων εἰς δικαίωμα.
but the free gift following many trespasses brought justification.
εἰ γὰρ τῷ τοῦ ἑνὸς παραπτώματι
For if, because of one man’s trespass,
ὁ θάνατος ἐβασίλευσεν διὰ τοῦ ἑνός,
death reigned through that one man,
πολλῷ μᾶλλον οἱ τὴν περισσείαν τῆς χάριτος καὶ τῆς δωρεᾶς τῆς δικαιοσύνης λαμβάνοντες ἐν ζωῇ βασιλεύσουσιν διὰ τοῦ ἑνὸς Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.
concessive
Ἄρα οὖν ὡς διʼ ἑνὸς παραπτώματος εἰς πάντας ἀνθρώπους εἰς κατάκριμα,
Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men,
οὕτως καὶ διʼ ἑνὸς δικαιώματος εἰς πάντας ἀνθρώπους εἰς δικαίωσιν ζωῆς•
so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men.
ὥσπερ γὰρ διὰ τῆς παρακοῆς τοῦ ἑνὸς ἀνθρώπου ἁμαρτωλοὶ κατεστάθησαν οἱ πολλοί,
For as by the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners,
οὕτως καὶ διὰ τῆς ὑπακοῆς τοῦ ἑνὸς δίκαιοι κατασταθήσονται οἱ πολλοί.
so by the one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous.
νόμος δὲ παρεισῆλθεν,
Now the law came in
ἵνα πλεονάσῃ τὸ παράπτωμα•
to increase the trespass,
actionpurpose
οὗ δὲ ἐπλεόνασεν ἡ ἁμαρτία,
but where sin increased,
ὑπερεπερίσσευσεν ἡ χάρις,
grace abounded all the more,
ἵνα ὥσπερ ἐβασίλευσεν ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ,
so that, as sin reigned in death,
οὕτως καὶ ἡ χάρις βασιλεύσῃ διὰ δικαιοσύνης εἰς ζωὴν αἰώνιον διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν.
grace also might reign through righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
