1 Corinthians 15:24
Here the word hupotasso is translated "put under," its literal meaning. The Revised Standard Version and the Revised English Version render the word as "subjected to."

1 Corinthians 15:22-25
These verses conclusively reveal that others will be called besides us, until Christ defeats all enemies of God's rule. Because every person who has conformed to the image of Satan is an enemy, God will eventually call all of mankind and confront each one about who their sovereign is! As Satan has deceived "the whole world" (Revelation 12:9), so in His time will God call the whole world.

What Does 1 Corinthians 15:24 Mean?
All rule and authority and power will be yielded to Him. In the beginning God and at the end God. God started it and when complete God will be all in all. Here the word hupotasso is translated put under its literal meaning or subjected to. Every knee will have bowed to Him and every tongue will have confessed or they will cease to exist.
