Ephesians 1:20-23 — Jesus as 'head over all things to the church' is clearly about authority

Ephesians 1:20-23 describes Christ raised from the dead, seated at God's right hand, far above all principality, power, might, and dominion, with all things under his feet, given to be 'head over all things to the church.' Mike argues this is clearly about authority. The egalitarian counterargument — that Jesus is head 'to the church' (provision) but authority is only 'over all things' — fails because the text says God gave him to be head 'over all things to the church,' making his headship comprehensive.
