Commentary on Acts 2:34

Peter quotes Psalm 110:1 - 'The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand' - to prove Christ's deity and messianic identity. The Hebrew distinguishes Yahweh (LORD, covenant name) commanding Adonai (Lord, master) to sit enthroned. David calls his descendant 'Lord,' impossible unless this descendant is divine. Christ used this psalm to confound Pharisees (Matthew 22:41-46); Peter now wields it evangelistically.
