Luc 20:42 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:42

And David himself saith in the book Psalms
In ( Psalms 110:1 ) the Lord said to my Lord, sit thou on my right hand;
which words were delivered by David, as inspired by the Spirit of God; and contain a speech of God the Father to his son Jesus Christ, upon his ascension to heaven, after his sufferings, death, and resurrection from the dead; when he was bid to sit down in human nature, at the right hand of God, in token of having done his work on earth to full satisfaction; and in the relation of which David calls Christ his Lord; and is the reason of their being mentioned.

Luc 20:42 In-Context

40 Et ils n'osaient plus lui faire aucune question.
41 Alors il leur dit: Comment dit-on que le Christ est fils de David?
42 Et David lui-même dit dans le livre des Psaumes: Le Seigneur a dit à mon Seigneur: Assieds-toi à ma droite,
43 Jusqu'à ce que j'aie fait de tes ennemis le marchepied de tes pieds.
44 Si donc David l'appelle Seigneur, comment est-il son fils?
