People's Commentary (NT)
Romans 6:6
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him]. The cross
of Christ slew our old sinful nature. The gospel was the power that
moved us to trample it down, separate from it, and cling to Christ.
When this old nature was crucified, we died to sin. Compare Ephesians 4:22
Colossians 3:9.
That the body of sin. Sin is conceived of as a living power, with
an organism, reigning over us through out bodily members.
Might be destroyed. Our death to sin destroys this dominion.
