On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

He calls them the faithful in Christ Jesus, believers in him, and firm and constant in their adherence to him and to his truths and ways. Those are not saints who are not faithful, believing in Christ, firmly adhering to him, and true to the profession they make of relation to their Lord.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

The Father loves the Son, and hath given ALL things into his hands. But that which completes the comfort of this is that he is the head over all things to the church; he is entrusted with all power, that is, that he may dispose of all the affairs of the providential kingdom in subserviency to the designs of his grace concerning his church.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

put . . . under--Greek, "put in subjection under" (Ps 8:6; 1Co 15:27). gave . . . to the church--for her special advantage. The Greek order is emphatic: "HIM He gave as Head over all things to the Church." Had it been anyone save HIM, her Head, it would not have been the boon it is to the Church.
