Luke 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.

Luke 20:42 In-Context

40 And they had fear of putting any more questions to him.

41 And he said to them, Why do they say that the Christ is the son of David?

42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Take your seat at my right hand,

43 Till I put under your feet all those who are against you.

44 David then gives him the name of Lord, so how is it possible for him to be his son?
