Ephesians 1:21
Compare all
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, aaccording to the working of His mighty power  
20 which He worked in Christ when aHe raised Him from the dead and bseated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places,  
21 afar above all bprincipality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.  
22 And aHe put all things under His feet, and gave Him bto be head over all things to the church,  
23 awhich is His body, bthe fullness of Him cwho fills all in all.

Ephesians 1:21

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion - That is, God hath invested him with uncontrollable authority over all demons in hell, all angels in heaven, and all the princes and potentates on earth. And every name that is named - We know the king is above all, though we cannot name all the officers of his court. So we know that Christ is above all, though we are not able to name all his subjects. Not only in this world, but also in that which is to come - The world to come is so styled, not because it does not yet exist, but because it is not yet visible. Principalities and powers are named now; but those also who are not even named in this world, but shall be revealed in the world to come, are all subject to Christ.
