Acts 2:34 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 2:34

For David is not ascended into the heavens
In his body, that being still in the grave, in his sepulchre, which remained to that day, though in his soul he was ascended to heaven; his Spirit had returned to God that gave it, and was among the spirits of just men made perfect: but he saith himself, in ( Psalms 110:1 ) "the Lord said unto my Lord, sit thou on my right hand"; (See Gill on Matthew 22:44).
