Charles Ellicott Commentary Romans 1:27

"and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due." — Romans 1:27 (ASV)

In themselves—that is, upon themselves, upon their own persons thus shamefully dishonored.

That recompence of their error which was meet.—The “error” is the turning from God to idols. The “recompense of the error” is seen in these unnatural excesses to which the heathen have been delivered up.
