3.4  PRIOR TO THE OLD TESTAMENT LAW, PERSONAL ACTS OF SIN WERE NOT SPECIFICALLY DEFINED

13 For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. (NKJV)
