"The Greek word used for trespasses in Romans 4:25 is paraptoma, an
infrequently used word. Does this have any significance as you read the
text? How might the meaning differ if Paul had, instead, used the word,
hamartia, the most commonly used word for sin?"

Any comments??

PARAPTOMA refers more specifically to transgressing a commandment, which is
the subject Paul is introducing. Many sinned, but only Adam transgressed:
