Hebrews 2:5-8
English Standard Version
The Founder of Salvation

or the son of man, that you care for him?
7 You made him for a little while lower than the angels;

8 putting everything in subjection under his feet.”
Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, (C)we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.
