Psalms 110:1-19. The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
You do not need a comment upon this Psalm when you remember how our Lord himself applied it to himself. It is David speaking concerning the Son of David, who is also David's Lord and our King, who at this hour is sitting at the right hand of Jehovah, the Lord of all; waiting until his monarchy shall be extended visibly over all creation.
Psalms 110:3. Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
Christ, like the rising sun, shall not come alone in his brightness, but, as with the sun we see an innumerable company of sparkling dewdrops, so shall the forces of Christ be as numerous as the drops of the morning dew which spring from the womb of the morning. God's infinite grace shall lead forth willing troops when Christ shall come.
Psalms 110:4. The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
That is, a priestly king, a kingly priest priest and king united in one person.
Psalms 110:5. The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
Life power shall stand against our coming Lord; when he once comes to the battle, the victory shall be sure.
Psalms 110:6-19. He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries. He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
Like a stern warrior that seeks not luxury, like Gideon's men that lapped, he shall drink of the brook as he marches on to the conflict, and because he hath scorn of self-indulgence and human luxury, therefore shall he be exalted King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
