VERSE (26) -
:24

SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:26

Por lo cual Dios los entreg a afectos vergonzosos; pues aun sus mujeres mudaron el natural uso en el uso que es contra naturaleza;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Romans 1:26

Verse 26. For this cause
God gave them up, &c.] Their system of idolatry necessarily produced all kinds of impurity. How could it be otherwise, when the highest objects of their worship were adulterers, fornicators, and prostitutes of the most infamous kind, such as Jupiter, Apollo, Mars, Venus, &c.? Of the abominable evils with which the apostle charges the Gentiles in this and the following verse I could produce a multitude of proofs from their own writings; but it is needless to make the subject plainer than the apostle has left it.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 26. For this cause
God gave them up unto vile affections , etc..] Because of their idolatrous practices, God left them to very dishonourable actions, sodomitical ones, both among the men and women: for even the women did change the natural use into that which is against nature ; either by prostituting themselves to, and complying with the sodomitical embraces of men, in a way that is against nature f8 ; or by making use of such ways and methods with themselves, or other women, to gratify their lusts, which were never designed by nature for such an use: of these vicious women, and their practices, Seneca speaks, when he says, libidine veto nec maribus quidem cedunt, pati natae; Dii illas Deoeque, male perdant; adeo perversum commentae, genus impudicitiae, viros ineunt: also Clemens Alexandrinus has respect to such, saying, gunaikev andrizontai para fusin, gamou men ai te kai gamousai gunaikev and such there were among the Jews, whom they call wzb wz twllwsmj yn f11 , and whom the priests were forbidden to marry.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 26-32 - In the horrid
depravity of the heathen, the truth of our Lord's word was shown: "Light was come into the world, but men loved darknes rather than light, because their deeds were evil; for he that doet evil hateth the light." The truth was not to their taste. And we all know how soon a man will contrive, against the strongest evidence, to reason himself out of the belief of what he dislikes. But a man cannot be brought to greater slavery than to be given up to his own lusts. A the Gentiles did not like to keep God in their knowledge, the committed crimes wholly against reason and their own welfare. The nature of man, whether pagan or Christian, is still the same; and the charges of the apostle apply more or less to the state and character of men at all times, till they are brought to full submission to the fait of Christ, and renewed by Divine power. There never yet was a man, wh had not reason to lament his strong corruptions, and his secret dislik to the will of God. Therefore this chapter is a call to self-examination, the end of which should be, a deep conviction of sin and of the necessity of deliverance from a state of condemnation __________________________________________________________________

Robertson's NT Word Studies

1:26 {Unto
vile passions} (eis path atimias). Unto passions of dishonor. Pathos, old word from pascw, to experience, originally meant any feeling whether good or bad, but in N.T. always in bad sense as here, #1Th 4:5; Col 3:5 (only N.T. examples). {That which is against nature} (ten para fusin). The degradation of sex is what Paul here notes as one of the results of heathenism (the loss of God in the life of man). They passed by the Creator.
