Yet perhaps this is less about becoming Lord than about being recognised as Lord.
Those who addressed him as Lord in his lifetime were recognising something about him which demanded acknowledgement.
But the presence of the resurrected Jesus evidently made this demand more strongly, so in that respect the Resurrection marked a turning-point.

Yes, thankfully, we don’t take everything literally...or I wouldn’t have any feet, hands or eyes!!
I was simply pointing out why Catholics do that. Most everything Catholics do have been done by those before us, traditions that go back (including the Mass) all the way to the apostles and early Christians. We hold fast to the Traditions our fathers have told us, wether by word or by epistle. (2Thess2)
