Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
12:36-37 Psalm 110:1 is the Old Testament verse most quoted in the New Testament. Since David authored the psalm, the statement “The Lord [God] said to my [David’s] Lord [the Messiah]” indicates that the Messiah is David’s Lord. Thus, the Messiah could not simply be David’s son. He is the Son of God who sits at God’s right hand (Mark 14:62) and will come to judge the world (8:38; 13:24-27, 32-37).
