under the complete control of to be under the complete control of someone In a number of languages it is simply not possible to preserve the idiom ‘under the feet of,’ though in some instances one may use a parallel idiom, for example, ‘to stand on,’ so that 1CO 15:25 might be rendered ‘until he stands on all his enemies,’ but it is more likely that the idiom in this context is better rendered as ‘until he defeats all his enemies.’
