Exegesis
The direct object pantas tous echthrous {πάντας τοὺς ἐχθρούς | pántas toús echthroús} ‘all the enemies’ emphasizes total scope.
The prepositional phrase hupo tous podas autou {ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ | hypó toús pódas autoû} ‘under his feet’ conveys the metaphor of complete dominion derived from ancient royal enthronement imagery.
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:25
For it is necessary for Him to reign until He has placed all the enemies under His feet.
