Ps 110:1
110:1 <> The {a} LORD said unto my Lord, Sit
thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy
footstool.
(a) Jesus Christ in Mt 22:44 gives the
interpretation of this, and shows that this cannot
properly be applied to David but to himself.
Ps 110:2
110:2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of {b}
Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
(b) And then it will stretch through all the world: and
this power chiefly stands in the preaching of his
word.
Ps 110:3
110:3 Thy people [shall be] willing in the day of {c} thy power,
in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning:
thou hast the dew of thy youth.
(c) By the word your people will be assembled into your
Church...increase will be...anointed wonderful...
drops of the...
Ps 110:4
110:4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou [art] a
priest for ever after the order of {d} Melchizedek.
(d) As Melchizedek the figure of Christ was both a King
and Priest, so this effect cannot be accomplished on
any king save only Christ.
Ps 110:6
110:6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill [the
places] with the dead bodies; he shall wound the {e} heads
over many countries.
(e) No power will be able to resist him.
Ps 110:7
110:7 He shall {f} drink of the brook in the way: therefore
shall he lift up the head.
(f) Under this comparison of a captain that is so eager to
destroy his enemies that he will not scarce drink by
the way, he shows how God will destroy his enemies.
