Context of Matthew 22:46

44“The Lord said to my Lord: Sit at my right side until I win against your enemies. Then you will be able to put your feet on them.” 45We know that King David calls the Messiah his Lord. So can you really say that the Messiah is David's son?’ Nobody could answer the question that Jesus asked. After this, everyone was afraid to ask Jesus any more questions.
