140. The Father is not “amongst” all things, for to Him it is confessed that “all things serve Thee.” Ps. cxix. 91. Nor is the Son reckoned “amongst” all things, for “all things were made by Him,” S. John i. 3. and “all things exist together Or “consist;” Lat.—constant; Greek—τὰ πάντα ἐν αὐτῳ συνέστηκεν. in Him, and He is above all the heavens.” Col. i. 17. The Son, therefore, exists not “amongst” but above all things, being, indeed, after the flesh, of the people, Lat.—familia. Cf. the expression “house of Israel.”—Ps. cxv. 9. of the Jews, but yet at the same time God over all, blessed for ever, Rom. ix. 5; cf. i. 3. having a Name which is above every name, Phil. ii. 9. it being said of Him, “Thou hast put all things in subjection under His feet.” Ps. viii. 6. But in making all things subject to Him, He left nothing that is not subject, even as the Apostle hath said. Heb. ii. 8. But suppose that the Apostle’s words were intended with reference to the Incarnate Lord; how then can we doubt the incomparable majesty of His Divine Generation?
