    • 2:8

      All things you subjected under his feet: Paul here quotes from the latter part of Ps 8:6. The passage at Ps 8:4-9 can be applied to mortal man in general. But under inspiration, Paul explains several times that this psalm is actually a prophecy about the Messiah. (1Co 15:27; Eph 1:22) The words Paul here quotes cannot fully apply to any imperfect human; only the first man Adam was given such authority over earthly creation. (Ge 1:28) However, Adam failed in his assignment. Jehovah gave Jesus, “the Son of man,” great authority, confident that Christ would succeed where Adam had failed. (Mt 20:28; 28:18) By sending his Son to become a human, Jehovah “made him a little lower than angels.” Ultimately, though, Jesus would become the Messianic King, who would have “all things . . . subjected under his feet.”​—Heb 2:7, 8.
