how can some of you say there is no resurrection of the dead?
Paul is using this question to begin a new topic. AT: "you should not be saying that there is no resurrection of the dead!" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised
Paul is using a hypothetical case to argue that there is a resurrection of the dead. He knows that Christ has been raised and so infers that there is a resurrection. To say that there is no resurrection is to say that Christ has not been raised, but this is false because Paul has seen the resurrected Christ (1 Corinthians 15:8). (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hypo)
not even Christ has been raised
This can be translated in active form. AT: "God has not even raised Christ" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive)
