Hebrews 10:13 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

That which remaineth he expecteth, even the fulfilling of his Father's promise to him, Psalms 110:1, patiently waiting, earnestly looking, for what is most certain, and wherein he cannot be disappointed; for in respect of himself. His enemies cannot infest him more, being entirely vanquished already; but in respect of his administration, he waits till all that oppose his royal priesthood, as the devil and his angels, sin, the curse, death, and the world, with which he conflicts as a Priest to destroy them with his own blood, as his members do by it, Revelation 12:11. Having given them their death's wound by his own death, he sits down, and waits in the successive ages of his church, until upon his elect it be made good, putting all under his own and church's feet, so to overcome and trample on them, as men on their footstools: see Hebrews 2:8 1 Corinthians 15:26.

Hebrews 10:13

13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
