“The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.”
The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands' — the Father-Son relationship's intimate love (agapaō) grounds Jesus' comprehensive authority. Universal submission ("everything") to the Son reflects divine love's expression through delegation. The statement affirms both the Father's priority (the loving giver) and the Son's exalted position (all placed under him).
