Man. Post. Cap. IX: GAR — if 'die in Adam' looks to imputation, so does 'sinned in Adam'; only Adam, not Noah etc.

GAR. From which I conclude the opposite way from the learned man: if the Apostle's saying "we die in Adam" looks to imputation, then so does what he says about having sinned in Adam. And that saying does look to imputation, as can be shown by a sure reason. For we are not said to die in Noah, nor in any other of our ancestors, but only in Adam. And yet just as we are said to be descended from Adam, so we can be said to be descended from our fathers and all our ancestors.

Latin

GAR. Unde contrario modo concludo, atque collegit Vir doctus: Si dictum Apostoli, in Adamo morimur, ad imputationem spectat: Ergo & quod ait, in Adamo peccasse. Atqui illud ad imputationem spectat; ut certa ratione ostendi potest. Nam neque in Noacho, neque in quocumque alio maiorum nostrorum mori dicimur, sed tantum in Adamo. Et tamen sicuti dicimur ab Adamo prognati, ita dici possumus prognati a patribus & omnibus maioribus nostris.
