Adam Clarke
Christ also hath once suffered - See the notes on Romans 5:6; Hebrews 9:28 (note).
Put to death in the flesh - In his human nature.
But quickened by the Spirit - That very dead body revived by the power of his Divinity. There are various opinions on the meaning of this verse, with which I need not trouble the reader, as I have produced that which is most likely.
