In Context

22 for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive,

23 and each in his proper order, a first-fruit Christ, afterwards those who are the Christ's, in his presence,

24 then — the end, when he may deliver up the reign to God, even the Father, when he may have made useless all rule, and all authority and power —

25 for it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet —
