1 Corinthians 15:27
Amplified Bible
27 For He (the Father) has put all things in subjection under His (Christ’s) feet. But when He says, “All things have been put in subjection [under Christ],” it is clear that He (the Father) who put all things in subjection to Him (Christ) is excepted [since the Father is not in subjection to His own Son].(A)

Hebrews 2:6-8
Amplified Bible
6 But one has [solemnly] testified somewhere [in Scripture], saying,
“What is man, that You are mindful of him,
Or the son of man, that You graciously care for him?
7
“You have made him for a little while lower [in status] than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
[a]And set him over the works of Your hands;
8
You have put all things in subjection under his feet [confirming his supremacy].”
Now in putting all things in subjection to man, He left nothing outside his control. But at present we do not yet see all things subjected to him.(A)
