Quote of the Day – “This psalm is normally termed “royal” and has had a long history of messianic interpretation. Although it has no title, it seems to bear the imprint of David’s hand. As such, it fluidly moves from the lesser David through the Davidic dynasty to the Greater David—Jesus Christ.” – Dr. John MacArthur in The MacArthur Study Bible.
