Commentary

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. (KJV)
I have been crucified with Christ; (---omit---) it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. (NKJV)

The NKJV completely omits the phrase "nevertheless I live", rejecting the KJV/TR reading. The particle “δὲ” is translated as “nevertheless” in the KJV, which at times can simply be a marker that shows the addition of a clause and does not need to be translated. This is the logic behind the NKJV translating it as a semi colon. But does this represent the same meaning as “nevertheless”. If the NKJV had even chosen a synonym such as “but I live” or “however, I live”, it would at least be an attempt to translate “δὲ”. The NKJV not only changes form, but the meaning of the text, and does not have the same sense of the KJV nor of the TR. If one compares the NKJV with the KJV one does not get the same meaning. Clearly the KJV has:

1. I am crucified with Christ:

2. nevertheless (“δὲ”)

3. I live;

4. yet not I,

5. but (“δὲ”)

6. Christ liveth in me:

The NKJV has

1. I have been crucified with Christ;

2. It is no longer I who live, (#4)

3. but (“δὲ”) (#5)

4. Christ lives in me; (#6)

The entire reason for the inclusion “δὲ” is the seeming contradiction between being crucified and alive at the same time. “δὲ” being represented by a semicolon here omits the contrasting themes unnecessarily.

I am crucified - but (“δὲ”) - I live

Not I - but (“δὲ”) - Christ liveth in me

The NKJV has

I have been crucified;

it is no longer I who live - but (“δὲ”) - Christ lives in me

It is an unnecessary change that simply follows modern versions, several of which have “I have been crucified” as part of verse 19, which may answer why modern versions depart from traditional translation methodology. Paul said “I am crucified (but, nevertheless, “δὲ”) I live.” The KJV clearly asserts that Paul, even after his crucifixion with Christ, still lives. The NKJV does not claim this in this part of the verse, but rather that Christ lives.
