Matthew 22:41-46

Whose Son Is the Christ?

41 While the Pharisees were assembled, Jesus questioned them: ¹

42 “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is He?” “David’s,” they answered.

43 Jesus said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call Him ‘Lord’? For he says:

44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’ ^[a]

45 So if David calls Him ‘Lord,’ how can He be David’s son?”

46 No one was able to answer a word, and from that day on no one dared to question Him any further.
