‏ Philippians 2:8-9

v. 8: Jesus did not just become human, but also accepted a humble and painful death—the death on a cross. He obeyed God completely, even when it meant suffering shame and pain for us (John 10:18; Galatians 4:4 ^a).

v. 9: Because Jesus humbled himself, God exalted him to the highest place. Jesus received a name above every name, meaning the highest honor and authority (John 17:5 ^b).
