Matthew 22:41-46 - David's Son And Lord

³⁵ But, while teaching in the Temple, Jesus asked, "How is it the Scribes say that the Christ is a son of David? ³⁶ David himself said, taught by the Holy Spirit, "'The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand, until I have made thy foes a footstool under thy feet.'

³⁷ "David himself calls Him 'Lord:' how then can He be his son?" And the mass of people found pleasure in listening to Jesus.

⁴¹ But He asked them, "How is it they say that the Christ is a son of David? ⁴² Why, David himself says in the Book of Psalms, "'The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand ⁴³ Until I have made thy foes a footstool under they feet.'

⁴⁴ "David himself therefore calls Him Lord, and how can He be his son?"
