³⁵ The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands.^(A)

²⁷ For he “has put everything under his feet.”^[a](A) Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.^(B)

²⁰ he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead^(A) and seated him at his right hand^(B) in the heavenly realms,^{(C) 21} far above all rule and authority, power and dominion,^(D) and every name^(E) that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.^{(F) 22} And God placed all things under his feet^(G) and appointed him to be head^(H) over everything for the church,

⁶ and has made us to be a kingdom and priests^(A) to serve his God and Father^(B)—to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.^(C)
