Psalms 110:2

The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion -The scepter of thy power; that with which thou shalt rule. It will be given to thee by Yahweh; and it will be given to thee, as it were, “out of Zion;” that is, as proceeding from the church, and as derived from that. It will be an appointment connected with the church, and will be “as if” the church had conferred it on thee. The idea is, that the Messiah would receive, as it were, his designation, authority, commission, power from the church. He would spring from itIsaiah 11:1; would act for it; would do what was needful for its good; would wield the power which properly belongs to the church on the earth.
