On Sin

"Sin is both the overstepping of a line and the failure to reach
it–both transgression and shortcoming.  Sin is a missing of the mark,
a spoiling of goods, a staining of garments, a hitch in one's gait, a
wandering from the path, a fragmenting of the whole.  Sin is what
culpably disturbs shalom.  Sinful human life is a caricature of proper
human life."
