(Strong'S #2673 — Verb — katargeo — kat-arg-eh'-o )

lit., "to reduce to inactivity" (kata, "down," argos, "inactive"), is translated "abolish" in Ephesians 2:15; 2 Timothy 1:10 , in the RV only in 1 Corinthians 15:24,26 . It is rendered "is abolished" in the AV of 2 Corinthians 3:13; the RV corrects to "was passing away" (marg., "was being done away"). In this and similar words not loss of being is implied, but loss of well being.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [3]

a -bol´ish ( חתת , ḥāthath , "to be broken down," "made void," "My righteousness shall not be abolished" ( Isaiah 51:6 ), i.e. as shown in God's faithfulness to His promises; מחה , māḥāh , "to erase," "blot out," "that your works may be abolished" ( Ezekiel 6:6 ) καταργέω , katargéō , "to render inoperative," "bring to nought," "make of no effect," "when he shall have abolished all rule" ( 1 Corinthians 15:24 ), every power opposed to God's kingdom; "having abolished in his flesh the enmity" ( Ephesians 2:15 )): By His death, Christ did away with the race separation due to historic ordinances and ceremonial laws (as of circumcision and uncircumcision); through the cross He wrought the reconciliation, and secured that common access to the Father by which the union is maintained.

"Our Saviour Christ Jesus ... abolished death" ( 2 Timothy 1:10 ). Men still die, "it is appointed unto men" ( Hebrews 9:27 ), but the fear of death as having power to terminate or affect our personal existence and our union with God, as a dreadful stepping out into the unknown and unknowable (into Sheol of the impenetrable gloom), and as introducing us to a final and irreversible judgment, has been removed. Christ has taken out of it its sting ( 1 Corinthians 15:55 ) and all its hurtful power ( Hebrews 2:14 ); has shown it to be under His control ( Revelation 1:18 ), brought to light the incorruptible life beyond, and declared the ultimate destruction of death ( 1 Corinthians 15:26; compare Revelation 20:14 ). The Greek (, katargeı̄tai ) indicates that the process of destruction was then going on.
