“Thou wilt prolong the king's life : and his years as many generations. Thou: Heb. Thou shalt add days to the days of the king as: Heb. as generation and generation”
Psalms 61:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 61:6
The prayer for the king's prolonged life ('years as many generations') anticipates the eternal dynasty promised to David (2 Samuel 7:16). While David's physical reign was temporal, this prophetically points to the Messiah's eternal reign. Each earthly king's reign is shadow, with Christ the substance—His years truly are 'as many generations' (Hebrews 7:24).
