Acts 2:35

"For David didn’t ascend into the heavens, but he says himself, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit by my right hand"

Key Reflection

This passage challenges the idea that King David could be the subject of Psalm 16:8-9, asserting instead that these words refer to Jesus Christ. The phrase "The Lord said to my Lord" highlights the divine authority and exalted position of Christ, indicating his role as the Messiah who sits at God's right hand in heaven.
