The death he died was death to sin. Before Christ died, he was tempted in every way that we are (Hebrews 4:15), and on the Cross was made to share our sin (2 Corinthians 5:21; compare Leviticus 16:21-22). After he died, sin could no longer make him its victim. Note that Christ raised from death in his BODY and went up to God in his resurrection BODY.
