Philippians 2:10

8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and ^abecame ^bobedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.

9 ^aTherefore God also ^bhas highly exalted Him and ^cgiven Him the name which is above every name,

10 ^athat at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,

11 and ^athat every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Light Bearers

12 Therefore, my beloved, ^aas you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, ^bwork out your own salvation with ^cfear and trembling;

13 for ^ait is God who works in you both to will and to do ^bfor His good pleasure.

That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow (ina en tw onomati Ihsou pan gonu kamyh). First aorist active subjunctive of kamptw, old verb, to bend, to bow, in purpose clause with ina. Not perfunctory genuflections whenever the name of Jesus is mentioned, but universal acknowledgment of the majesty and power of Jesus who carries his human name and nature to heaven. This universal homage to Jesus is seen in Romans 8:22; Ephesians 1:20-22 and in particular Revelation 5:13.

Under the earth (kataxqoniwn). Homeric adjective for departed souls, subterranean, simply the dead. Here only in the N.T.
