- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 1The Lord said unto my Lord - In the Hebrew, “Spake Jehovah to my Lord.” The word יהוה Yahweh is the incommunicable name of God.

It is applied to kings, princes, rulers, masters. The phrase “my Lord” refers…Read the comment

The Lord said--literally, "A saying of the Lord," (compare Psa 36:1), a formula, used in prophetic or other solemn or express declarations. my Lord--That the Jews understood this term to denote the Messiah their traditions show, and Christ's mode of arguing on such an assumption (Mt 22:44) also proves. Sit ... at my right hand--not only a mark of honor (1Ki 2:19), but also implied participation of power (Psa 45:9; Mr 16:19; Ep 1:20). Sit--as a king…Read the comment
