Romans 1:24 Douay-Rheims

Wherefore God gave them up to the desires of their heart, unto uncleanness, to dishonour their own bodies among themselves.

Adam Clarke

1762–1832 Methodist

God - gave them up, etc. - They had filled up the measure of their iniquities, and God, by permitting them to plunge into all manner of irregularities, thus, by one species of sin, inflicted punishment on another. Dishonour their own bodies - Probably alluding here to what is more openly expressed, Rom 1:26, Rom 1:27. Between themselves - εν εαυτοις, Of themselves, of their own free accord; none inciting, none impelling.
