MAJOR OLD TESTAMENT PROPHECIES OF THE MESSIAH
Psalms 110
*Announcement of the Messiah's Reign*
It is a royal psalm, one of the most directly messianic psalms. It should be read in conjunction with other messianic psalms such as Psalms 2 and Psalms 24. Jesus Himself identified David as the writer of this psalm.
Jesus' interpretation of this psalm is crucial for unlocking the psalm's meaning.
Matthew 22:41-45
Mark 12:35-37
Luke 20:41-44
Compare Peter's exposition of the psalm in Acts 2:34-36.
In the identification of "my Lord" in verse 1, *David was speaking of someone greater than himself*. *Since no ordinary son of David could be greater than him, "the Lord" of verse 1 refers to the coming Messiah, God's Son*
Hence this psalm describes a conversation between God the Father and God the Son (verse 1), in which *the Father grants the Son royal and priestly honours*
