all we who were baptized. Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. [2] old self
The expression occurs elsewhere, in Eph 4:22 Col 3:9 and always means the man of old, corrupt human nature, the inborn tendency to evil in all men. In Rom 6:6 it is the natural man himself; in Eph 4:22 Col 3:9 his ways. Positionally, in the reckoning of God, the old man is crucified, and the believer is exhorted to make this good in experience, reckoning it to be Song by definitely "putting off" the old man and "putting on" the new Col 3:8-14 Ep 4.24, See Scofield Note: "Eph 4:24", note 3.

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. [3] What then
The old relation to the law and sin, and the new relation to Christ and life are illustrated by the effect of death upon servitude Rom 6:16-23 and marriage Rom 7:1-6. (1) The old servitude was nominally to the law, but, since the law had no delivering power, the real master continued to be sin in the nature. The end was death. The law could not give life, and "sin" (here personified as the old self) is in itself deathful. But death in another form, ie., crucifixion with Christ, has intervened to free the servant from his double bondage to sin (Rom 6:6,7), and to the law Rom 7:4,6 (2) This effect of death is further illustrated by widowhood. Death dissolves the marriage relation Rom 7:1-3. As natural death frees a wife from the law of her husband, Song crucifixion with Christ sets the believer free from the law. See Scofield Note: "Gal 3:24" Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
