Psalms 2:7 - The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann

Bible Comments

I will declare the decree, make known, express for a statute, publish as a resolution: The Lord, the great Jehovah, the almighty God of the heavens, hath said unto Me, Thou art My Son, standing in the relation of essential Sonship to God; this day, in the great, eternal today, in the timeless period of eternity, have I begotten Thee, Christ being generated out of the essence of God. The Son of God was from eternity brought forth by the eternal Father as His essential image, by the transmission of the divine essence, in an incomprehensible, supernatural manner. Cf Matthew 3:17; Matthew 17:5. messiah now states what the Father, in His great commission, had spoken to Him.
