Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 Corinthians 15:25

25 For he must reign, until he hath put all enemies under his feet .

God hath so decreed, (and what he hath said must come to pass) that Christ should, as Mediator, exercise a Kingdom and Government in the World, until he hath subdued all the Enemies of his Gospel and People; all those who have said, He shall not rule over them; the whole World that lieth in wickedness, the Devil, and all his Instruments: this he proveth from the words of the Psalmist, Psal. 110.2. The term until doth not signifie the determination of Christs Kingdom then, though his mediatory Kingdom on Earth will then be determined. He shall still reign, but not as now, in the midst of his Enemies, and in the exercise of his Kingdom in the Conquest and subduing of them.
