Christ went into Heaven and now is on God's right hand (Psalms 110:1) when angels and authorities and powers had subjected themselves to Him in accordance with prophecy (Psalms 8:7; cf. Hebrews 2:8; 1 Corinthians 15:24 ff.). For the orders of angels see also Romans 8:38; Ephesians 1:21. Clearly they include the rebels of 1 Peter 3:19 f. whom Jubilees calls the angels of the Lord (Jub. iv. 15) and Onkelos the sons of the mighty and their children (?) the giants.
