# 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](../15/08.md)).

This can be translated in active form. Alternate translation: "God has not even raised Christ" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
