We know
This phrase emphasizes the certainty and assurance that believers have in the truth of the resurrection. The Greek word used here is "οἴδαμεν" (oidamen), which implies a deep, intuitive knowledge. This is not mere intellectual assent but a profound understanding rooted in faith. Historically, the early church was built on the testimony of the resurrection, a cornerstone of Christian doctrine that provided hope and assurance to believers facing persecution.

that since Christ was raised from the dead
The resurrection of Christ is central to Christian faith, signifying victory over sin and death. The Greek word for "raised" is "ἐγείρω" (egeirō), which means to awaken or to lift up. This event is not just a historical occurrence but a transformative reality that impacts the believer's life. Archaeological evidence, such as early Christian tombs and inscriptions, supports the historical belief in the resurrection, underscoring its foundational role in the early church.

He cannot die again
This phrase highlights the permanence and finality of Christ's victory over death. The Greek "οὐκέτι" (ouketi) means "no longer" or "never again," emphasizing the eternal nature of Christ's triumph. In the scriptural context, this assurance is a source of hope for believers, affirming that death has been defeated once and for all. Historically, this belief distinguished Christianity from other religions of the time, which often viewed death as a cyclical or recurring event.

death no longer has mastery over Him
The word "mastery" comes from the Greek "κυριεύω" (kurieuō), meaning to have dominion or control. This phrase signifies that death, which once held sway over humanity due to sin, has been conquered by Christ. In the broader scriptural narrative, this victory is part of God's redemptive plan, restoring the relationship between God and humanity. Theologically, this underscores the power of the resurrection and the hope of eternal life for believers, as death's dominion is broken.

(9) Dieth no more.--The eternal subsistence of the life of Christ is a guarantee for the permanence and reality of our own life, so far as it is dependent on His. If it were possible that the life of Christ should fail, the whole fabric that the believer's faith builds upon it would fall to the ground.

Verse 9. - Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. When it is implied here that death had once dominion over him, it is not, of course, meant that he was in his own Divide nature subject to death, or that . 'it was possible that he should be holden of it." All that is implied is that he had made himself subject to it by taking on him our nature, and voluntarily submitted to it, once for all, as representing us (cf. John 10:17; Acts 2:24).
