* Psalm 8:5 Jesus Made Lower Than the gods! *
***What Does Psalm 8:1-6 TRULY mean?
Here is Psalm 8:5 from the KJV. “For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.”
Notice that Jesus was made LOWER than the angels FIRST. And then, God CROWNED him with GLORY and honor.
Also, please understand that the English word “angels” was translated from the Hebrew word “Elohim” which ALSO means God, god, and gods.
In other words, Almighty God MADE the Son of MAN, Jesus, a little lower or inferior to the gods.
But the question is WHY? Why did Almighty God, the God of gods, create mankind a little LOWER than His previous creation of the angels, which He SET or appointed to be gods over differents parts of the universe?
That is what we will find out in the Verse Study in God’s word, the Holy Bible.

Does Psalm 8:5 Mean that Jesus was CREATED?
Was the Son of God MADE to Become Lord?
The short answer to both of the questions in the titles above is YES! Both MAN and the Son of MAN were made or created to be a little LOWER than the angels, or the gods, who were made to become gods over different parts of God vast creation of the universe.
In other words, the Hebrew word “Elohim” that is translated as the English word “angels” also means god and gods, as well as meaning THE Almighty God.
And the REASON for WHY God created human beings and the Son of MAN is to clear God’s name from be blasphemed by His ENEMIES, according to Psalm 74:10, and the CONTEXT in Psalm 8:1-6, which I will quote below.
The words that I emphasize in orange refer to Yahweh, Almighty God the Father. The words that I highlight is yellow refer to the Son of MAN, Jesus, before his God highly exalted him AFTER the cross and resurrection and gave him a NEW NAME that is higher than every other name, according to Philippians 2:8-11.
And the words that I highlight in blue refer to the TRUTH and also to the GLORIFIED Son of MAN, Jesus, after the cross and resurrection. In other words, Psalm 8:1-6 is a PROPHECY of the Messiah and WHY God created MAN and the Son of MAN.
Please be sure to read Book 6 called “WHY God Created us!” Each chapter of that book covers a different verse of Scripture that teaches us WHEN the Son of MAN, Jesus, BECAME God’s FIRSTBORN Son made in the IMAGE of the invisible God in order to become the BEGINNING of the church of the FIRSTBORN.
Psalm 8:1-6.
“To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord, (Or more correctly translated in the LITERAL translation from the Textus Receptus, Yahweh Lords of us. Also, the LITERAL translation of Psalm 8:1 says, Yahweh our Lords in the PLURAL, as in, TWO Lords with the SAME NAME. The first Yahweh ALWAYS existed as Creator Yahweh. And Yahweh the Father GAVE His NAME to His HUMAN Son, Jesus, AFTER the cross and resurrection to be MADE a Lord, according to Acts 2:36 and Philippians 2:8-11) how excellent is Your NAME in all the earth! Who has SET Your glory above the heavens. (In other words, the Son of MAN, Jesus, gave glory to his God and Father during his ministry. And as a reward for the OBEDIENCE of the human Son of God, Yahweh gave Jesus a NEW NAME and MADE him Lord or SET the glorified Son of MAN to be Lord over the earth for 1000 years during the world to come, according to Acts 2:36, Isaiah 58:8, Hebrews 12:2, Acts 2:28, Psalm 21:6, and Psalm 17:15)
Psalm 8:2. Out of the mouth of babes and suckling have You ordained strength BECAUSE of Your enemies, that You might STILL the ENEMY and the AVENGER. (The strength that Yahweh ordained is the GIFT of the Holy Spirit and POWER from on high. But in order to RECEIVE the gift of the Holy Spirit, a person must BELIEVE and RECEIVE Yahweh’s GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS by FAITH in His Son Jesus and what Jesus did for us on the cross)
Psalm 8:3. When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained; (Now, the reason that I highlighted the moon and the stars in green and in blue is because during a previous age of the earth ALL of the angels were GOOD angels. And Yahweh SET or ordained some of His angels to become gods, or RULERS over different parts of the universe. And Lucifer was made a god over the earth during a PREVIOUS age of the earth BEFORE God created Adam and Eve. However, Lucifer and one third of the “stars” or the angels rebelled and waged a WAR against Yahweh and the rest of the good angels. Also, the moon is a FIGURE of Satan, the lesser light of the children of the NIGHT. So then, when you TRULY consider the Elohim, both the faithful gods and rebellious gods)
Psalm 8:4, What is MAN, that You are mindful of him? And the Son of MAN, that You visit him? (And, according to Isaiah 50:4-7, Yahweh visited the Son of MAN, Jesus, morning by morning to TEACH him that the Scriptures prophesied of him)
Psalm 8:5. For You have MADE him a little LOWER than the angels, (In other words, God created or made MAN and the Son of MAN, Jesus, LOWER or inferior to the angels or the Elohim, the gods) AND have CROWNED him with glory and honor. (In other words, Almighty God CROWNED His HUMAN Son, Jesus, to be made Lord over the earth for 1000 years during the word to come for a REASON. And the reason for WHY God created a new species of beings called the HUMANS to be made a little LOWER than God’s previous creation of the angels is for Almighty God to JUDGE Lucifer, aka or also known as, Satan, guilty as charged. And, according to Acts 17:29-31, Almighty God the Father will JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels, along with the disobedient to the Gospel, by the MAN who He ordained and raised from the DEAD)
Psalm 8:6. You made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet:”
The Hebrew word translated as “to STILL your enemies” means to rid His enemies, to put down or remove His enemies. And it also carries the meaning of taking away the credibility of the enemy’s FALSE accusation against Yahweh. Keep in mind that God’s NAME or character has been polluted or profaned by His enemy, the avenger, according to Isaiah 48:11.
Yahweh DEFENDS His name or character in Ezekiel 28:15, saying to His anointed Cherub, Lucifer, you were PERFECT from the day that I CREATED you UNTIL iniquity was found in you.
So then, in order to clear Yahweh’s name or character of being BLAMED for CREATING Lucifer and the fallen angels as being FLAWED or NOT being “created” perfect, Yahweh decided to CREATE man and the Son of MAN a little LOWER or inferior to the angels to PROVE that it was NOT the Creators fault for the WAR that the fallen gods waged against His throne of authority.
In other words, God needed a CREATION that He created perfect to be made INFERIOR to the Elohim in order to PROVE that what He CREATES is NOT FLAWED. And thus, if one of His CREATURES become corrupted, then it is the creature FAULT and NOT Yahweh the Creator’s fault.
So then, if even ONE MAN or one HUMAN being lives a righteous life before Yahweh, then God will JUDGE the world or the previous AGE by the MAN that He ordained and raised from the dead, according to Acts 17:29-31. And that is why Almighty God Himself did NOT die of the cross and church TRADITION CLAIMS.
Now, WE as Christians, who believe in Jesus, shall ALSO judge the ANGELS, as in, the FALLEN angels, according to 1 Corinthians 6:3. And we shall also be given the honor to help Jesus execute the WRATH of Almighty God at the coming of Jesus.
Psalm 149:5-9.
“Let the SAINTS (Or let the GLORIFIED holy ones, and Jesus, who is the FIRST GLORIFIED Holy One) be joyful in GLORY: let them sing aloud upon their beds.
Psalm 149:6. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand.
Psalm 149:7. To EXECUTE vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people,
Psalm 149:8. To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,
Psalm 149:9. To EXECUTE upon them the judgment written: this HONOR have ALL his SAINTS. Praise you the LORD.”
All of the glory and praise goes to the Father. And, according to Revelation 5:8-10 and John 5:22-27 Jesus is WORTHY to RECEIVE POWER, praise, worship, glory, and honor, even as we give to the Father, BECAUSE he is the Son of MAN. And thus, when we give thanks and praise to Jesus, we are ALSO simultaneously giving thanks and praise to the Father. But that does NOT mean that Jesus is the Father Himself.
Now, according to prophecies in Psalm 16:10,11, Psalm 89:19,19, Hosea 11:9, Habakkuk 3:3, and the fulfillment in Luke 4:24, Acts 2:27,28,36, Acts 13:33-35, Jesus is called the Holy One of God. And according to Hosea 11:9, the Holy One will execute the wrath and vengeance of Yahweh.
Hosea 11:9.
“When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt… (The name Israel means he shall RULE as God. In other words, the FIRSTBORN Son of God was GIVEN dominion over the WORK of Yahweh’s hands to RULE over the earth in the world to come as God, made in the IMAGE of God, FOR Yahweh and in the NAME of Yahweh for 1000 years)
…Hosea 11:9. I (Yahweh) will NOT EXECUTE the fierceness of My anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and NOT MAN; the Holy One in the midst of you: and I will NOT enter into the city.”
Now, I believe that the “city” that Yahweh will NOT enter is called Gilead in Hosea 6:8. And the city of Gilead is said to be the city of them that work INIQUITY. And God will NOT dwell in or ENTER an unclean temple. In other words, a “city” or the word “city” is symbolism for a group of PEOPLE gathered together.
Now, let us read about the “CITY” that Yahweh WILL DWELL in, the CITY of the Living God. For you see, it is the CITY of New Jerusalem is the purpose for WHY Yahweh created MAN and the Son of MAN, Jesus. Yahweh’s PLAN to END the WAR in heaven and all wars for all eternity is to DWELL in His NEW creation.
And thus, Yahweh laid the chief corner stone of His CITY, but He chose for the corner stone to FINISH His work and BUILD the rest of the CITY of the Living God, which is the church of the FIRSTBORN, the BODY of Jesus, the TABERNACLES of Yahweh.
Let us begin by reading Psalm 86:4-11.
Psalm 46:4-11.
“There is a river, (Speaking of the river of LIVING waters that give the saints eternal life) the streams whereof shall make GLAD the CITY of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. (A literal physical “city” does not have emotions to be made sad or glad. So then, the CITY of God are His holy ones, the SAINTS in which God tabernacles or dwells in)
Psalm 46:5. God is in the midst of her; (Jesus was GIVEN the power and the authority to give the Holy Spirit to those who BELIEVE. And thus, Jesus tells the Holy Spirit what to teach us) she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. (Yahweh and His Son Jesus work TOGETHER in unity to help the believers, the BODY of Jesus)
Psalm 46:6. The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered His voice, the earth melted. (Or the GLORIFIED Son of MAN, Jesus, uttered his voice in the AUTHORITY and POWER of the VOICE of Yahweh, and the earth melted with fervent heat causing must destruction on the earth.
But at the end of the Millennial reign of Jesus, Yahweh will reign fire down from heaven and the ELEMENTS will melt with fervent heat and the earth will PASS AWAY. But we, who BELIEVE will be SAFE in the “literal” CITY of God up in the second heaven that the world calls “outer space” or just space.
Then, Almighty God the Father Himself will create a NEW Earth and a NEW heaven. And then, the “literal” city with the CITY of RIGHTEOUS new creature will inherit the AGE of eternity and God Himself will dwell WITH us, according to Revelation 21:1-8.
In other words, the earth melting with fervent heat is the LAKE of fire that consumes the wicked to ashes never to rise again)
Psalm 46:7. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. (Or pause and THINK about this. TWO Gods, Yahweh the Creator and the God that He FORMED)
Psalm 46:8. Come, behold the WORKS of the LORD, what desolations He has made in the earth. (For the REASON or PURPOSE of ENDING all WARS for all eternity)
Psalm 46:9. He makes WARS to CEASE unto the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in sunder; He burns the chariot in the fire. (I say, He, as in, Yahweh the Father does the WORKS through his Messiah that He GLORIFIED and COMMITTED the authority and power to JUDGE the heathen and disobedient to the GOSPEL by executing the WRATH of Yahweh)
Psalm 46:10. Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Psalm 46:11. The LORD of hosts is WITH us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.”
Yahweh is WITH us by DWELLING in His Messiah, whom He HIGHLY EXALTED to be MADE a Lord of lords, a King of kings, a High priest of priests, a God of gods UNDER and subject to his LORD, the Eternal King, the only WISE God, the God and Father of Jesus.
And Yahweh did this and is still in the process of completing all of this to END the WAR in heaven and the END ALL WARS and EVIL for all eternity. Here is one more prophecy of the CITY of God in the Old Testament.
Psalm 87:3.
“The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
Psalm 87:3. Glorious things are spoken of you, O CITY of God. Selah.”

Thanks for reading, and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God. And to me, the truth concerning who Jesus TRULY is, according to the Bible ITSELF, is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus.
Once Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even atheists understand the REASON that Yahweh CREATED the Son of MAN, Jesus, was to have DOMINION over the work of Yahweh’s hands.
And after you understand that the REASON that Yahweh did that is to STILL His ENEMIES, Satan and the fallen angels.
Then you can understand that God made His human Son to become a Lord, a King, and a God, to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.
