1 Corinthians 15:27-29

Expanded Bible

²⁷ ·The Scripture says that God put [^LFor he has subjected] all things under his ·control [^Lfeet; Ps. 8:6]. When it says “all things” are ·under [subjected to] him, it is clear this does not include the One [^CGod the father] who put everything under his control. ²⁸ After everything has been ·put under [subjected to] the Son, then he will ·put himself under [be subjected to] ·God [^Lthe One…], who had put all things under him. ·Then [or …so that] God will be ·the complete ruler over everything [or supreme in every place and in every way; ^Lall in all].

²⁹ If the dead are never raised, what will people do who are being baptized for the dead [^Cit is unclear what this practice was or whether Paul approves or disapproves]? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people being baptized for them?
