Romans 6 seems carefully constructed as to pronouns; The
'us' inclusive in verses 1 to 6, the you of verse 3 and
11-14 as invitational; and the he/his of verses 3-10 clearly
referring to Christ.

'The one' hO GAR APOQANWN [hope I got that transcription
sort of right] in verse 7 is ambiguous - does it refer to
the singular person who has died by baptism into the death
of Christ or does Paul intend to refer to Christ in this
construction?

thanks
