Christ's Total Dominion
Paul quotes Psalm 8 to prove that God the Father has decreed Christ's absolute rule over all creation. Commentators explain that while the Psalm originally referred to humanity's dominion, it finds its ultimate and complete fulfillment in Jesus. His authority extends over everything in the universe—all powers, authorities, and even death itself.
