Footnotes

  1. 110:1 This is a royal psalm. It tells us what God promised to the great king that he has chosen to rule the world.
  2. 110:1 The Lord is God's own name. ‘My Lord’ means ‘My master’. Jesus used the words from this psalm to show that the Messiah was greater than King David, because David called him ‘my Lord’. See Matthew 22:43-44; Mark 12:36; Luke 20:42-43. Peter also used these words when he spoke to many people after Jesus had died. See Acts 2:34-35.
  3. 110:1 The right side is where the powerful, important person would sit.
