Colossians 1:15

15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all[a] creation,

Colossians 1:15 In-Context

13 who has rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred [us] to the kingdom of the Son {he loves},
14 in whom we have the redemption, the forgiveness of sins,
15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation,
16 because all [things] in the heavens and on the earth were created by him, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers, all [things] were created through him and for him,
17 and he himself is before all [things], and in him all [things] are held together,
