David says about Him This phrase introduces a quotation from King David, a central figure in Jewish history and a man after God's own heart (1 Samuel 13:14). The reference to David underscores the continuity between the Old Testament prophecies and their fulfillment in Jesus Christ. The Greek word for "says" (λέγει, legei) indicates a present, active declaration, suggesting that David's words, though spoken in the past, have a living and ongoing relevance. This highlights the prophetic nature of the Psalms and their ultimate fulfillment in Christ, affirming the unity of Scripture and God's sovereign plan through history. I saw the Lord always before me because He is at my right hand I will not be shaken He is on my right hand.--The Psalmist thought of the Eternal as the warrior thinks of him who, in the conflict of battle, extends his shield over the comrade who is on the left hand, and so guards him from attack. When the Son of Man is said to sit on the right hand of God (Psalm 110:1; Matthew 26:64) the imagery is different, and brings before us the picture of a king seated on his throne with his heir sitting in the place of honour by his side. Verse 25. - Saith for speaketh, A.V.; he held for foresaw, A.V. The sixteenth psalm is ascribed to David in the title prefixed to it in the Hebrew and the LXX. Without pronouncing the titles to be infallible, we must confess that they carry great weight with them in the absence of any strong internal evidence against them. Meyer speaks of the psalm as "certainly later than David," and Ewald and others ascribe it to the time of the Captivity; but Hitzig thinks the internal evidence is in favor of its belonging to the time before David ascended the throne ('Speaker's Commentary'). We may safely rest on the authority of St. Peter here and St. Paul (Acts 13:35, 36), and be satisfied that it is really David's. The manner in which it is quoted by the two apostles is also very strong evidence that by the Jews of that day it was generally admitted to be a Messianic psalm.
