The word “firstborn” is also used as a metaphor. The nation of Israel was called “firstborn” because God chose that nation as his own special people (see: Exodus 4:22-23). God gave Israel special honor over other nations. Jesus was also called “firstborn of all creation” (see: Romans 8:29; Colossians 1:15, 18; Hebrews 1:6; Revelation 1:5). That is, Jesus has more honor than every created thing. Jesus also rules over all creation. Jesus is also “firstborn from among the dead.” That is, Jesus was the first person to be resurrected and would never die again.
