Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Corinthians 15:28

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

28. Son . . . himself . . . subject —not as the creatures are, but as a Son voluntarily subordinate to, though co-equal with, the Father. In the mediatorial kingdom, the Son had been, in a manner, distinct from the Father. Now, His kingdom shall merge in the Father's, with whom He is one; not that there is thus any derogation from His honor; for the Father Himself wills "that all should honor the Son, as they honor the Father" ( John 5:22 ; John 5:23 ; Hebrews 1:6 ). God . . . all in all —as Christ is all in all ( Colossians 3:11 ; compare Zechariah 14:9 ). Then, and not till then, " all things," without the least infringement of the divine prerogative, shall be subject to the Son, and the Son subordinate to the Father, while co-equally sharing His glory. Contrast Psalms 10:4 ; Psalms 14:1 . Even the saints do not fully realize God as their "all" ( Psalms 14:1- : ) now, through desiring it; then each shall feel, God is all to me. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-29" class="com-number"
