And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
All Commentaries on Romans 8:10 Go To Romans 8
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
Paul calls the body “dead” because it is mortal. Furthermore, it is because of this mortality that the lack of earthly things troubles the soul and arouses certain desires, to which the man who serves the law of God in his mind does not submit and sin.
