but he replied, have ye never read what David, and the rest of the company did, when they were press'd with hunger?

when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he cried out, and said, Jesus, son of David, have pity on me.

but many of the company rebuk'd him, in order to silence him. at which he cry'd out with more earnestness, son of David have pity on me.

blessed be the kingdom of our father David, which is now come, Hosanna in the highest heavens.

As Jesus was teaching in the temple, he address'd himself to them, saying, why do the Scribes maintain that Christ is the son of David?

for David himself, who was inspired by the holy spirit, has this expression, "the Lord said to my Lord, sit thou at my right hand till I make thy enemies thy foot-stool."

now since David himself calls him Lord, how can he be David's son? and the common people heard him with pleasure.
