On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §639

Man. Post. Cap. IX: PLAC — if Adam fulfilled the law loco posterorum, posterity would be free in their persons

Truly, if Adam had fulfilled that law in the place of all his posterity, his posterity would no longer have been bound to fulfill the same law in their own persons—just as, because Christ satisfied divine justice in our place, we are no longer bound to satisfy it.

Latin

Profecto, si loco omnium posterorum Adamus legem illam implevisset, eius posteri ad eandem legem implendam ipsi in propriis suis personis non fuissent amplius obligati, quemadmodum quia loco nostro Christus iustitiae divinae satisfecit, non tenemur amplius ei satisfacere.
