Ephesians 1:22

Ephesians 1:22 And hath put all [things] under his feet. All power was given into his hands when he was raised from the dead (Matthew 28:18). He is the rightful ruler of all. And gave him [to be] the head over all [things] to the church. He was, when raised from the dead (Ephesians 1:20), exalted to be the ruler of all things (Acts 2:33 5:31 Php 2:9) and made the Head of the church (Ephesians 5:23 Col 1:18); not merely its ruler, but the Head of the Body, which derives its life from the Head. Compare I Corinthians 10:17 12:27. Note that this exaltation is after the cross and the resurrection, definitely showing that Christ's church was not organized until after our Lord's suffering.
